APAAR ID: The One Nation One Student ID

Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry (APAAR) is a unique identification system designed by the Government of India for all Indian students. It is an initiative in alignment with the National Education Policy 2020.

APAAR is a platform for you to access all your credentials and achievements in one place. It acts as a lifelong academic passport.

1. You must have a valid Aadhaar Card and an account on Digi Locker for e-KYC.
2. Parental consent is mandatory for creating the APAAR-ID. You need to submit a consent form for registering for the program.
3. You can visit your respective school to register for APAAR-ID. The school verifies your demographic information and after creation, it gets automatically added to your Digi Locker for safe online access.
4. The ID has a distinctive and permanent 12-digit number that is your student identification number.
5. Schools can record and manage all your achievements, academic progress, activities and credits in the ID.
6. APAAR provides data security and confidentiality by not sharing your personal information to any third party.

1. It is a great one-stop source for all your valuable academic data.
2. You can easily access all the educational information required when changing institutions.
3. Progress monitoring can be made simpler by referring to APAAR.
4. The Academic Credit Bank by NEP 2020, will store the academic credits you have earned during your higher education. APAAR ensures uninterrupted operation and transfer of these credits across Higher Education Institutions.
5. APAAR can eradicate the practice of physical document submission during admission or employment processes.

1. Parents have to visit their child’s respective school and learn more about the APAAR-ID.
2. They have to submit a consent form to the school authority which allows the storage and sharing of personal information of the child to create an APAAR ID.
3. After this step, APAAR-ID is created and submitted to the student’s Digi Locker.
4. The student can access this ID through Digi Locker at any given time.

APAAR-ID is not compulsory. You can register for this program to avail the benefits, but there is no legal obligation demanding its use.

The Ministry of Education ensures that all information stored on the APAAR-ID remains safe, reducing the risk of misuse. This data will be utilised only for educational purposes.
