How to Apply for Aadhar without any Documents?

Who are the Introducers?

An Introducer is an individual who is above 18 years of age and who does not have a criminal record. For examples: Introducers can be Registrar's employees, postmen, teachers, healthcare workers, local NGO representatives, anganwadi workers, elected local body members, registrar's employees, or doctors.

In certain cases, the UIDAI takes the initiative of gathering Introducers to make it easier for the Registrars or residents. Every Introducer will be linked to a particular Registrar. One Registrar can use the same Introducer more than once. However, an Introducer can only introduce residents within the jurisdiction of the Registrar.

Applying for an Aadhaar Card Through the Head of the Family

Besides applying for an Aadhaar card with the help of an introducer, you can also apply for an Aadhaar through the head of the family. If your name is on the family’s entitlement documents, such as a ration card, you can easily apply for an Aadhaar card without the supporting documents. For this, the head of the family must have an Aadhaar card, valid identity proof, and address proof. You can visit your nearest Aadhaar enrolment centre with the head of the family and apply for an Aadhaar. Both the head of the family and the applicant must submit documents that prove their relationship with one another.

To prove your relationship with the head of the family, you need to submit any one of these documents:

1. Passport·
2. Marriage certificate
3. Birth certificate
4. Address card issued by the Department of Posts
5. Pension card
6. PDS card
7. Medical card issued by state government/ECHS/ESIC/CGHS

An Aadhaar card is an essential identity proof that every Indian citizen must have. In the absence the supporting documents, people can still apply for an Aadhaar using the two ways mentioned here.
