We have discussed earlier how to download your e-Aadhaar Card Letter Online from the website, to know the complete process just click here. To download Aadhaar Card from UIDAI Website or mAadhaar app aadhar card download password is not required. But once you finish downloading your Aadhaar Card PDF File, to view your downloaded eAadhaar PDF it will ask you to enter the password. This means your e-Aadhaar PDF file is encrypted with password protection for your security and
privacy reasons. Without entering the valid password your e-Aadhaar card cannot be viewed by anyone.
So In this post, we will focus on how people after downloading their e-Aadhaar Card Letter can open their Aadhaar if they are facing any difficulty in it.
To Open the PDF file of Aadhaar Letter you need the password, many people may be unaware of their Aadhar password and some people even though knowing the correct Aadhar password may be unsuccessful to unlock or view their Aadhaar PDF. Below are steps explained clearly which will help you to know what is the password to open aadhar card online.
When you open the PDF File it will prompt you to enter the password, once supplying the Aadhaar Card PDF password then only you will be able to view your e-Aadhaar Card Letter.
Now here is the solution, in the password prompt you will have to put the Aadhaar password and the password will be your first four letters of the name in block letters + Year of birth, previously Aadhaar PDF used to get open by entering the postal address pin code. So to tighten the security, even more, UIDAI has changed the Aadhaar PDF Password Format.
Postal Pin Code will only work as a password to open eAadhaar Card PDF which was downloaded earlier. If you have downloaded your Aadhar PDF recently then this new password format will be applied to it.
Below are some examples for your reference stating how the Aadhaar password combination will be according to your details:
e aadhaar password example
