If you are an Indian citizen, it’s important to keep your Voter ID updated and linked with Aadhaar. The Election Commission of India (ECI) has made Aadhaar–Voter ID linking mandatory to remove duplicate entries and ensure clean electoral rolls. In 2025, the process is simple and can be done online through the NVSP portal or the Voter Helpline app.
This guide explains the steps, documents required, and why Aadhaar–Voter ID linking is important.
Why Link Aadhaar with Voter ID?
- Eliminates duplicate entries: Linking ensures that no one is registered in multiple constituencies.
- Strengthens transparency: It makes the electoral rolls accurate and trustworthy.
- Convenience: Citizens can update and verify their information online in just a few minutes.
Documents Required
To link Aadhaar with your Voter ID, you need:
- Voter ID card (EPIC number)
- Aadhaar card (12-digit UID number)
- Registered mobile number (for OTP verification)
How to Link Aadhaar with Voter ID Online
- Visit the NVSP Portal or open the Voter Helpline App.
- Log in using your mobile number and OTP.
- Select “Link Aadhaar with Voter ID” (Form 6B).
- Enter your EPIC number, Aadhaar number, and registered mobile.
- Submit the form and complete OTP verification.
- Once approved, you will receive a confirmation message.
Offline Option
You can also link Aadhaar with your Voter ID by visiting your local Booth Level Officer (BLO) with both Aadhaar and Voter ID documents.
Important Note
Linking is free of cost and available year-round. However, make sure the details on Aadhaar and Voter ID match (name, date of birth, gender). Any mismatch may require corrections before linking.
Why It Matters
With elections around the corner, Aadhaar–Voter ID linking ensures fair voting, reduced fraud, and stronger democracy. Every citizen’s responsibility is to complete this process before the election deadlines.
