UIDAI also provides this facility if one has lost his original Aadhar card and does not want its downloaded copy and wants to get it back in its original form. Aadhar Reprint option is available for Aadhar cardholders. UIDAI recently tweeted that more than 60 lakh citizens of the country have used the ‘Order Aadhaar Reprint’ facility.
Aadhaar can be reprinted through the UIDAI website and the Aadhaar app. To apply for Aadhaar reprint, Aadhaar cardholder must have their Aadhaar number. What is special is that even if your mobile number is not registered in Aadhaar, you can reprint Aadhaar. There is an option to take OTP on unregistered mobile number.
