Masked Aadhaar Meaning

Masked Aadhaar numbers are created by substituting the first eight digits of the Aadhaar number with characters such as "xxxx-xxxx," leaving only the final four digits exposed.

Under masked Aadhaar only the final four digits of the 12-digit Aadhaar number are visible in the document, protecting the subscriber's identity by masking the first eight digits. This ensures that the card cannot be misused even if it is lost or misplaced.
