Questions
What is a masked Aadhaar?
A copy of your Aadhaar where the first 8 digits of the number are hidden and only the last 4 show. It is enough for most identity checks and much safer to share.
Why hide the QR code?
The QR code holds your details in machine-readable form, so anyone can scan it even if the printed text is covered.
Can I open the password-protected e-Aadhaar PDF?
Yes. You'll be asked for the password (the first 4 letters of your name in capitals plus your year of birth). It only unlocks the file in your browser.
Is my Aadhaar uploaded anywhere?
No. The text is read and covered inside your browser, and the file never leaves your device.
