How to get an Aadhaar card for a child?

To get an Aadhaar card for a child, visit an authorized Aadhaar Enrolment Centre with the child and a parent or guardian. You can book an appointment online through the official UIDAI website. For children under five, known as Baal Aadhaar, only a photograph is taken and no biometrics are required. You must provide the child's birth certificate and a parent's Aadhaar card. For children aged five and above, biometrics like fingerprints and iris scans are mandatory. The process is free for new enrolments.
