Aadhaar is mandatory for all citizens of the country. Have you ever paid attention to your Aadhaar card? Have you noticed the colour on your Aadhaar card? Actually, there are two types of Aadhaar cards. Their colours differ from one another. Aadhaar cards are often printed with black ink on white paper. You will notice this with everyone.

Today, we will explain to you about this blue Aadhaar card. How is it created there? Which documents are necessary for this? We will also provide detailed details on this.
The Aadhaar card designed for children is considerably different from the standard Aadhaar card. When UIDAI issues Aadhaar cards for children, the colour is blue. It is also known as Baal Aadhaar. This Baal Aadhaar is created at the time of birth using the child’s birth discharge certificate and the parent’s Aadhaar card.
The blue coloured 12-digit Aadhaar card is intended for children aged 5 and under. This Aadhaar card is good for up to five years. Following this, the Aadhaar card must be updated. This blue coloured Aadhaar card cannot be used after the age of five.
Blue Aadhaar cards can be obtained both online and offline. Biometric information from the child is not necessary to create this Aadhaar card. For this, only the parent’s Aadhaar card is required. In this, only one photo of the child is captured.
To make a Blue Aadhaar Card online, first visit the UIDAI website. Along with providing the relevant information for the child’s Aadhaar registration, parents will be required to submit their number. You will need to reserve an enrollment centre for the registration process.
The essential documents such as the parent’s Aadhaar card, address proof, and the child’s birth certificate will be checked. Following this, the Aadhaar card will be issued within 60 days.
