Linking Aadhaar with your Driving License has never been easier. Learn more about this process below.
Aadhaar numbers and driver's licenses are linked in order to stop the violations brought about by holding multiple driver's licenses. According to Indian road transportation laws, each person is only permitted to have one driver's license on file and having more than one is prohibited. Using the Aadhar-based common framework, driving licenses connected to the Aadhar system facilitate authorized officials' access to and verification of license information for all vehicles registered in the country.
If you are looking to link your Aadhaar to your driving license then you can learn more about this in the following sections.
Linking your Aadhaar and driver’s license may seem like a difficult task, but it can easily be done online. Here are the steps involved in doing so:
Visit the road transport website of the state where you live or where the driving licence was issued.
Find the ‘Link Aadhaar’ section on the website.
Go to the “Aadhaar Number Entry” option after clicking on ‘Link Aadhaar’.
From the following drop down menu, select the “Driving Licence” option.
Enter your Licence number in the relevant field/s.
Then, click on the “Get Details” button.
Next, the details of your driving licence should appear on the screen. This should be followed by a couple of blank fields. These are to enter your Aadhaar and Mobile numbers.
Enter your Aadhaar and your mobile number in the respective fields. (Note: you should use the mobile number linked with your Aadhaar at this step.)
Re-check and submit the details you have provided.
After submitting, an OTP will be sent to the registered mobile number for verification.
Enter the OTP. Your licence is now successfully linked with your Aadhaar.
Besides being a mandatory requirement, the benefits of linking your Aadhaar card to your driving license are:
It helps prevent the circulation and use of fake driver’s licenses
Aids in tracking individuals in case of any accidents, thereby ensuring better road safety practices
Helps charge fines to drivers for any traffic violations, accordingly
Makes it convenient for changing details in your driver’s license since you do not need to provide a lot of documents
Useful for digital verification, making it much easier to verify one’s identify
Helps streamline government services for a unified and standardised experience
