4. Updates Requiring No Documents

- Email ID Update: No document needed (processed via OTP/biometrics at the center).
- Biometric Update (Fingerprints, Iris, Photo): No document needed; done physically at any enrollment center.
Note: Scanned copies or physical documents presented at the center must be originals (photocopies without originals are rejected). Name and details on the supporting documents must match the requested changes.
Which specific detail are you looking to update (such as your address, name, or phone number)? Providing that can help narrow down the fastest channel to process it.
