Aadhaar Card PDF Password – Unlock e-Aadhaar
Open your e-Aadhaar PDF and save a copy without the password.
You need to know the password. This removes it so the PDF opens, prints and copies without asking. The file never leaves your device.
Your files are processed on your device and are never uploaded.
The e-Aadhaar PDF you download from UIDAI is locked with a password. It is not random: it is the first four letters of your name in CAPITAL letters followed by your year of birth. Enter it below, and this page saves a copy of your Aadhaar PDF without the password – handy for printing, sharing with a bank or attaching to a form. The file never leaves your device.
Aadhaar Card PDF Password Format
- Rule: first 4 letters of the name as printed on your Aadhaar, in CAPITALS + year of birth (YYYY).
- Example: Pankaj Kapoor, born in 1980 → PANK1980.
- Example: Suresh Kumar, born in 1995 → SURE1995.
- Short names: guides differ on names shorter than four letters – try the letters the name has, then the first letter(s) of the surname (for example Ria Sharma, 1990 → RIAS1990).
- Initials and dots count as characters, exactly as printed on the card.
How to Remove the Password From Aadhaar PDF
- Choose your e-Aadhaar PDF (downloaded from the UIDAI website or mAadhaar).
- Type the password in the format above.
- Click Unlock PDF and download the copy without a password.
Password Not Working?
- Use the name exactly as on the Aadhaar, not a nickname or a different spelling.
- Use your year of birth only (four digits), not the full date.
- Make sure the letters are in CAPITALS.
- If your Aadhaar shows only a year of birth, use that year.

Safe and Private
Aadhaar is sensitive. On this page the PDF is unlocked entirely in your browser – it is never uploaded to any server, and nothing is stored. You must know the password; this tool does not crack or guess it.
