"Give me an Aadhaar copy, both sides." You hear it at the bank, the SIM shop, the college office and on half the forms you fill online. A photocopy shop does it in a minute, but you can make the same page on your phone, print it at home, or upload it straight to a form.

What you need

  • A photo of each side of the card. Lay it on a plain, dark surface and shoot from straight above, with no flash glare.
  • An A4 printer, or a print shop, if you need a paper copy.

If you only have an e-Aadhaar PDF, take a screenshot of the card part at the bottom of it. That works just as well.

How to make the page in 3 steps

Our free ID Card Front & Back on One Page tool does it in your browser, so your Aadhaar never leaves your phone.

  1. Add the front and the back. Tap each box and choose the photo. Use ⟳ if a side is turned, and ✂ Crop to trim it to the card's edges.
  2. Choose the size. Real card size prints at 8.6 × 5.4 cm, the size of the card in your wallet. Large fills more of the page, which helps when your photo or screenshot is small.
  3. Download. Get a PDF to print or upload, or a JPG if the form asks for an image.

Printing at the right size

The real card size only stays right if the printer doesn't scale the page. In the print settings:

  1. Choose A4 paper.
  2. Set the scale to 100% or Actual size.
  3. Turn off Fit to page.

Print one copy and hold your card against it. If it matches, you're set. The dotted lines around each side make it easy to cut out if you need a card-sized copy.

Uploading it to a form

Many forms take one file for "ID proof" and want both sides in it. Open More options and pick Under 200 KB (or 100 KB if your form asks for that). Switching to Black & white makes the file much smaller still, and most offices accept it.

Other cards work the same way

PAN, voter ID, driving licence and ATM cards are all the same size as Aadhaar, so the same steps apply. Need several on one page, such as Aadhaar and PAN together? Tap + Add another document and add up to 8 photos.

Common mistakes

  • Printing with "fit to page" on. The card comes out a little small.
  • Leaving the table in the photo. Crop to the card's edges for a clean copy.
  • Glare on the photo or QR code. Turn off the flash and tilt the card away from the light.
  • Sharing an open copy. Write what it's for across it, like "For SIM KYC only", using Add Watermark to PDF, or lock it with Protect PDF before you email it.

Frequently asked questions

Is a printed copy from this tool accepted? It's the same as a photocopy: a clear image of both sides on one page. Whether an office takes a copy, or wants it self-attested, is up to them.

Is my Aadhaar uploaded anywhere? No. The page is made in your browser, and your photos never leave your device.

Can I use a masked Aadhaar? Yes. Download the masked e-Aadhaar from the UIDAI website, take a screenshot of the card part, and use that.
