It has to be remembered that the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) issues a verifiable 12-digit number to every Indian resident. Currently, Aadhaar is one of the most important documents for one's proof of identity. The recent tweet from the official Twitter handle of Aadhaar states, "You can now update your gender in your Aadhaar online through the following link - ssup.uidai.gov.in/ssup/ to update. Your mobile number registered in Aadhaar is required to authenticate via OTP."

 

It has to be noted that one has to make the update regarding one's gender from the registered mobile number.  Also, Rs 50 will be charged for each update request through the online portal. For updating one's gender through the self-service update portal, OTP authentication via mobile or face authentication will be required. One must also note in this regard that one will be able to update one's gender identity only once in lifetime.

One must note that one will be able to update Name, Date of Birth, Gender and Address through the Aadhaar self-service update portal.  For submitting the supporting documents, one will be required to upload original coloured scanned copies of POA document as per the valid document list.
