CIRCULAR <\/strong><\/p>\n

Subject: Applicability of Aadhaar as an identity document for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs)\/Person of Indian Origin (PI0s) and Overseas Citizen of India (OCIs) \u2013 Reg.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the recent past several representations have been received from individuals such as Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), Person of Indian Origin (PIOs) and Overseas Citizen of India (OCIs) informing about difficulties being faced by them on demand of Aadhaar by respective Authorities in respect of various services\/benefits etc. An illustrative list of such cases wherein NRIs\/PIOs\/OCIs are reported to have been asked to submit or link Aadhaar in order to avail the services\/benefits\/schemes has been compiled and is placed as Annexure<\/em>.<\/p>\n

2. It has been brought to notice that some of the Ministries\/Departments\/Implementing Agencies concerned are insisting the NRIs\/OCIs\/PIOs to submit or link their Aadhaar for availing the services\/ benefits etc. that are directly or indirectly connected with NRIs\/OCIs\/PI0s, regardless of the fact they may not be entitled for Aadhaar as per the Aadhaar (Targeted Delivery of Financial and other Subsidies, Benefits and Services) Act, 2016 (Aadhaar Act, 2016)<\/p>\n

3. In this regard, attention is invited to Section 3(1) of the Aadhaar Act, 2016, which inter-alia, lays down that \u201cevery resident<\/strong> shall be entitled to obtain an Aadhaar number by submitting his demographic information and bio metric information by undergoing the process of enrollment.\u201d<\/em> Further Section 2(v) of the Aadhaar Act defines \u2018resident\u2019 as an individual who has resided in India for a period or periods amounting in all to one hundred and eighty-two days or more in the twelve months immediately preceding the date of application for enrollment.<\/em><\/p>\n

4. The laws regarding submitting\/linking of Aadhaar for availing the services\/ benefits applies to the resident as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016. In view of the foregoing, most of the NRIs\/PI0s\/OCIs<\/em> may not be eligible for Aadhaar enrollment as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016. However, the implementing agency may devise a mechanism to ascertain the genuineness of status of such NRIs\/PI0s\/OCIs.<\/p>\n

5. Further, Section 7 of the Aadhaar Act, inter alia, provides that \u201cif an Aadhaar number is not assigned to an individual, the individual shall be offered alternate and viable means of identification for delivery of subsidy, benefit or service\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

6. Further, it has been recapitulated through various notifications\/circulars that the requirement of getting Aadhaar is only in respect of those individuals who are entitled for it as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016. In this regard, reference may be drawn to Prevention of Money-laundering (Maintenance of Records) Rules, 2017 and Section 139AA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 which clearly stipulate that the linking of Bank Accounts and PAN respectively, is for those persons who are eligible to enroll for Aadhaar<\/strong> <\/em>as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016.<\/p>\n

7. In view of the above, it is suggested that all Central Ministries\/Departments\/State Governments and other implementing agencies may keep in consideration the following while seeking Aadhaar as a proof of identity:<\/p>\n

(a) Aadhaar as an identity document may be sought only<\/strong> from those who are eligible for it as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016; and <\/em><\/p>\n

(b) most of NRIs\/PI0s\/OCIs may not be eligible for Aadhaar enrollment as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016.<\/em><\/p>\n

8. The Ministries\/Departments are requested to issue appropriate directions to the State Governments\/implementing agencies concerned on the above and also give it wide publicity.<\/p>\n
