Now you can actually request the UIDAI to send the information to your registered mobile number.  UIDAI has provided a tool that enables Aadhaar holders/applicants to retrieve the UID (Unique Identity Number). An Aadhaar applicant who has submitted his or her Aadhaar application or an Aadhaar cardholder can use the UIDAI portal to retrieve the UID on their registered mobile number.

Procedure for retrieving your ID is as follows:


Visit the UIDAI self-service portal and click on the 'Retrieve Lost UID/EID' link. On the next page, make sure 'Aadhaar Number' is selected on the left side of the page for receiving your Aadhaar card number on mobile. Fill the personal details as specified. You need to give your name, the mobile number or email address registered with Aadhaar and the security code as displayed on the form. After entering the details, click on 'Send One Time Password' to proceed. Upon a successful entry, the UIDAI facility sends an OTP to the registered mobile number or email address. Enter this OTP and click on 'Verify OTP'. At the end of a successful entry, the UIDAI tool sends the Aadhaar number (UID) to the user. Users also get an option of downloading the Aadhaar card in the digital form.


The 'Receive Your Lost UID/EID' tool also enables users to retrieve their Aadhaar enrolment number, also known as EID or enrolment ID. This facility is for Aadhaar applicants who are still awaiting their Aadhaar card. Select 'Enrolment Number (EID)' option on the left side of the tool, fill in the required details such as name, phone number/email and the OTP.
