NRI Aadhaar, PAN Card and International Driving Licence

Eligibility depends on residency status and the rules in force. Aadhaar is generally for residents, but NRIs with a valid Indian passport can often enrol, and the process differs from the resident one. Check current guidance on the official UIDAI site before applying.

NRIs usually apply online with a passport copy and overseas address proof, sometimes attested. Applications are made through authorised portals, and some documents may need to be certified abroad. Requirements are updated often, so check the current instructions first.

Many NRIs need one if they earn income in India, hold bank accounts or investments, or buy and sell property. Whether you must have one depends on your situation, so speak to a qualified tax professional if you are unsure.

In India it is generally issued by the Regional Transport Office against a valid Indian driving licence, with a passport and visa copy, photographs and a form. Details vary by state, and your destination country may have its own rules, so check both.
