The Aadhaar card has become an essential document in today’s world. Whether you’re dealing with banking, property registration, or even applying for school, the Aadhaar card is a must-have. It’s also necessary for travel purposes. The card is issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). One of its main drawbacks was its size, which wasn’t very convenient to carry around. However, that’s no longer an issue, as you can now obtain your Aadhaar in a compact polyvinyl chloride (PVC) card format.

PVC Aadhaar Card: Durable and Secure

Previously, Aadhaar cards were printed on paper, which could be challenging to keep in good condition, even with lamination. In contrast, the PVC Aadhaar card is designed to last a lifetime and is easy to maintain. The best part is that it fits comfortably in your wallet, resembling an ATM card. Made from synthetic plastic, this card measures 86 mm x 54 mm. It is robust and features security elements like holograms, guilloch patterns, and QR codes.
