New Delhi. Aadhar card has become the strongest document related to our identity today. From admission in school to opening a bank account, Aadhar number is required everywhere.
Due to Aadhar being linked to bank account and ration card, there is a lot of fraud. This is the reason why many people hesitate while giving Aadhar number. But, many of your important works can be done even without giving Aadhar number. For this, you just have to create a virtual Aadhar ID.
You will not have to pay any fee to create a virtual Aadhaar ID. Virtual ID is a 16 digit number. This virtual ID can be used for authentication and e-KYC in place of Aadhaar number. The Aadhaar number of any Aadhaar cardholder cannot be traced through virtual ID. This virtual ID can be used for many purposes including opening a bank account, applying for government services, completing e-KYC process, downloading Aadhaar PVC card or e-Aadhaar, applying for passport and buying insurance policy.
How to create a virtual ID
-
- First of all go to the official website of Unique Identification Authority of India.
- Here select the language as per your convenience in Hindi or English.

Apart from
the official website, you can also get a virtual ID by sending an SMS from your phone. For this, you have to type the last 4 digits of the Aadhaar number along with RVID from your registered mobile number and send it to 1947. For example, if the last 4 digits of the Aadhaar card are 4565, then the text of the message should be RVID 4565.
