The Unique Identity Authority of India (UIDAI) is ready to introduce the nationwide QR code-competent e-accolaium system by the end of 2025. The initiative will allow base holders to verify their identity digitally, which will eliminate the need to photocopy or present the physical photocopy of the Ama card for authentication.
E-Aadhaar App: Digital verification process
UIDAI CEO Bhuvanesh Kumar confirmed that about 2,000 of the existing one lakh base authentication devices have already been upgraded to support the QR-based system. Once implemented, the identity check can be completed using a digital QR scan, which will streamlive verification for both individuals and service providers.

Along with QR upgrade, UIDAI plans to launch an updated Aadhaar mobile app. This app will enable users to make changes in most individual details, such as name, address and date of birth, directly from their smartphones. This change will reduce the requirement of in-travelers for enrollment centers.
Rollout Time and Change
Since November 2025, in-Person trips for enrollment centers will only be required for biometric verification tasks, including fingerprints and iris scans. All other updates can be completed digitally through the app, which will make the process paperless and more convenient.

This system will also draw certified user information directly from the government database, including birth certificate, PAN card, passport, driving license, ration cards under PDS system, MNREGA records, and possibly electricity bill records for the verification of addresses.
The purpose of UIDAI is to reduce the risks of identification fraud, while ensuring that the identity verification is safe and accessible for more than one billion base holders. The QR code verification method is already being tested as a safe identity confirmation tool in sub-registrar offices and hospitality industry. The system will work with privacy security measures, which ensures that individual information is shared only with clear consent.

Children’s biometric updates
On the other hand, UIDAI is coordinating with educational boards such as CBSE to operate biometric enrollment drives for school students. These efforts target the compulsory biometric updates for children aged five and seven, and again between 15 and 17 years, to ensure that their base details remain on.
