Aadhaar is India’s most critical identity proof; changing a name needs formal legal support. The Gazette Notification for Name Change in Aadhar is key evidence. Although Aadhar updates are carried out offline at centre, the Gazette is the major supporting document. At the centre, you’ll complete the form, provide your previous Aadhar and the Gazette, go through biometric verification, pay a fee, and get a URN.
