Biometric information is not included in a child's Aadhaar data but it must be updated once the child reaches the age of five.
With the introduction of the Baal Aadhaar card for kids, every Indian citizen, regardless of age, can get a 12-digit identification number.
Biometric information like fingerprints and iris scans are not included in a child's Aadhaar data as they do not develop for children under the age of five. However, biometrics must be updated once the child reaches the age of five.
Many schools ask for the Aadhaar number of kids during admission procedures. So, if you haven't already done so, you should apply for your child's Aadhaar.
Documents Required
1. Child's birth certificate
