Aadhaar PVC Card Printing

Aadhaar PVC card printing from your own file

A paper Aadhaar folds and tears in a wallet. A PVC card does not. Aadhaar PVC card printing here means one thing: you upload your Aadhaar, and we print it on a rigid card the size of a debit card, in full colour. Each card costs ₹50, is made in a day and arrives in 5 to 8 days anywhere in India.

Choose the version you need

• PVC Aadhaar card print online: the full Aadhaar, printed on both sides from your PDF or photos.
• Plastic Aadhaar card print online: the same print, for anyone looking for a plastic Aadhaar card to keep in a wallet.
• Masked Aadhaar PVC card print: a masked Aadhaar that shows only the last four digits of the number.

Private print or UIDAI's own card

We are a private printing service and are not UIDAI. A card printed here is a copy of your own Aadhaar and is not an official card. UIDAI offers its own PVC card, which you order on the UIDAI website. If you need the official card, order it there. If you want a copy made from the Aadhaar you already hold, with the price and delivery time shown before you pay, this is the place.

Get your e-Aadhaar PDF

The best file is the e-Aadhaar PDF from the myAadhaar portal. You choose Download Aadhaar, enter your Aadhaar number, your Virtual ID or your enrolment ID, and confirm with the OTP sent to your registered mobile. You can choose a masked Aadhaar at the same step.

The PDF is password protected: the first four letters of your name in capitals, followed by your year of birth. You enter that password on our page after you upload. A step-by-step version is in our guide on how to download your e-Aadhaar PDF and print it on a PVC card.

Masked or full

A masked Aadhaar hides the first eight digits and shows the last four. It suits a card you carry every day and show to hotels, shops or couriers. Use the full version only where a form asks for the full number. If you are not sure, print both and keep each for its own purpose.

How to order

• Choose the quantity, from 1 to 10.
• Upload your files. The e-Aadhaar PDF is password protected, so enter the password after it uploads.
• Place your order.

Tips for a sharp print: use the original PDF if you have it, and read the name, date of birth and number on your screen before you upload. If it is clear on screen, it will be clear on the card.

For the whole family

Upload one file for each person and set the quantity to match. Keep each person's front and back together, and name the files clearly, for example "Ravi front" and "Ravi back". Order for others only with their permission.

Keep your Aadhaar safe

• Download only from the official site, and check that the address ends in .gov.in.
• Never share an OTP with anyone who calls or messages you.
• Keep your original e-Aadhaar PDF safe, so you can print again later.
• Consider locking your biometrics on the myAadhaar portal when you are not using them.

Why people print their Aadhaar on PVC

Most people who order here already have their Aadhaar as a PDF and want something sturdier to carry. Parents order a card for each child, families order a spare for a grandparent, and travellers order a copy for a document folder. A plastic card slides into a card slot, does not crease in a pocket and wipes clean.

Common problems and what to do

• The OTP does not arrive: check that the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar is the one you are using, and request the OTP again after the timer ends.
• The PDF will not open: type the password again, using capitals for the four letters of your name.
• The file looks small: download it again rather than taking a screenshot.
• You downloaded the full version but want the masked one: download again and choose the masked option.

What happens after you order

You upload your file and place your order. The card is printed in a day, packed carefully and sent to your address, and it arrives in 5 to 8 days. If a file cannot be opened or looks incomplete, we may contact you before printing.

Delivery to your door

Your card is packed to stay flat and unscratched, and the courier takes it to the address you enter at checkout. Someone should be able to take the parcel, so give a phone number that you answer. Delivery covers every part of India.
