Frequently Asked Questions

Why does UIDAI send password-protected PDFs?

UIDAI encrypts statements with a password derived from your registered identifiers (name + DOB, or PAN, depending on the bank). It's a security default.

Is it legal to remove the password?

Yes — the password protects the file in transit. Once you have it open, you can save an unprotected copy for your own use, accountant, or loan officer.

Do you store my password or PDF?

Neither. Both run entirely in your browser. The PDF never leaves your device.
