Updating your Aadhaar card details or applying for a new Aadhaar enrollment requires submitting a photograph that meets strict UIDAI biometric specifications. If your photo has incorrect dimensions, a non-white background, or exceeds the file size limit, the UIDAI portal will reject your upload automatically.
