Pls refer to the below:
Child is below 5 years of age:
- One of the parents/ guardian has to authenticate on behalf of the child and also give consent for enrolment of the minor by signing the enrolment form.
- If the child is an NRI - valid Indian passport of the child is mandatory as Proof of Identity (PoI)
- If the child is an Indian resident (not NRI) - any valid Proof of Relationship document (refer here) such as Birth Certificate, along with Aadhaar of the parent/ guardian, can be used for enrolment.
Child is between 5 to 18 years of age:
- One of the parents/ guardian has to give consent for enrolment of the minor by signing the enrolment form.
- If the minor is an NRI – valid Indian passport of the child is mandatory as Proof of Identity (PoI)
- If the minor is an Indian resident (not NRI) -
- No document in the name of the minor: any valid Proof of Relationship document (refer: here) such as Birth certificate can be used for enrolment under Head of Family.
- Minor has a document: use a valid Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA) document (like School ID card) in the child’s name for enrolment (refer: here).
