UIDAI Portal now allows residents to get their Aadhaar enrollment number back if it is lost. Aadhaar Enrollment Number is very essential to check the status of your Aadhaar, to download Aadhaar PDF and for many other purposes. And if you lose your Aadhaar Enrollment Number it becomes very difficult.
Previously if you had lost your Aadhaar Enrolment Number, it was not possible to recover or get it back as the option to recover EID was not available over UIDAI Portal. But now the option to recover your lost Aadhaar Enrolment Number does exist on the UIDAI portal and this simplifies the process to get back enrolment number quicker.
But to recover your lost Enrolment ID or Number Online, you should have either mobile number or email address registered with your Aadhaar. If none of them is linked with your Aadhaar then you won’t be able to proceed further to recover your Aadhaar Enrolment Number.
