Is my Aadhaar number valid
Check free on the official myAadhaar website if your Aadhaar number is valid and not deactivated. You need only your own 12-digit Aadhaar number.
Free on the official page. Your own numbers only. We have no automated link to any government portal, use no private data services, and never store the result.
What you need
- Your own Aadhaar number (12 digits), or a family member's when they are with you and agree.
- A phone or computer with internet. UIDAI (the Aadhaar office) gives this check free.
What to do on the official page
- Open the official myAadhaar website (the button on this page). Its address ends in uidai.gov.in. Do not use other sites that ask for your Aadhaar number.
- If you start from uidai.gov.in instead, the same page is the link 'Check Aadhaar Status'.
- Type your own 12-digit Aadhaar number.
- Type the picture code (captcha) yourself and press the button to check.
- Read the message and find it in the list below.

What the result means
The portal shows: The number exists, with a few details such as the last 3 digits of the mobile linked to it.
It means: Your Aadhaar is valid and not deactivated. The last 3 digits show which of your phones is linked to your Aadhaar.
What to do next: Nothing to do. If you no longer use that phone, change the mobile in Aadhaar at an Aadhaar centre (official fee ₹75).
The portal shows: The number is not valid, does not exist, or is deactivated.
It means: First check that you typed all 12 digits right. If it still says this, your Aadhaar may have been stopped, for example when an update or a child's biometric (fingerprint and photo) update was not done.
What to do next: Call the UIDAI helpline 1947 (free) and ask why. Then go to an Aadhaar centre with your Aadhaar letter and proof documents. Pay only the official fee on the receipt.
The portal shows: An error, or the page does not open.
It means: The captcha was wrong, or the site is busy.
What to do next: Type a new captcha and try again later. Help: UIDAI helpline 1947 (free).
Frequently asked questions
Is this check free?
Yes. myAadhaar gives it free. FormSathi does not charge for this page.
Do I need an OTP (one-time code) or a login?
No login is needed. You type the number and the captcha (picture code) only.
I forgot which mobile I gave for Aadhaar. Can this help?
Yes. UIDAI says this check shows the last 3 digits of that mobile. To test a full number, use our check on which mobile is linked to your Aadhaar.
Can I check someone else's Aadhaar number?
Check only your own, or help a family member who is with you and agrees. FormSathi never looks up another person's Aadhaar.
Does a valid result mean my address and name are right?
No. It only says the number is working. Read your details on your Aadhaar letter or e-Aadhaar, and update them at an Aadhaar centre if they are wrong.
