ABHA Card Download 2026: Download Your ABHA Health ID Card Online
The ABHA card shows your 14-digit Ayushman Bharat Health Account (ABHA) number, your digital health ID under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission. You can download it again at any time from the official ABHA portal, as long as you have access to your Aadhaar-linked or ABHA-linked mobile number.
How to download the ABHA card
- Open the official ABHA portal and choose Login.
- Log in with your ABHA number, ABHA address, Aadhaar number or mobile number.
- Enter the OTP sent to your linked mobile number.
- Your ABHA profile opens. Choose Download ABHA Card.
- Save the card (PDF or image) on your phone.
You can also view and download the card in ABDM-enabled health apps after logging in with your ABHA details.
Forgot your ABHA number?
On the login page, choose to log in with your Aadhaar number or mobile number. After OTP verification, your profile shows the ABHA number, and the card can be downloaded from there.
OTP not coming?
- The OTP goes to the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar (for Aadhaar login) or linked to your ABHA (for mobile login). Make sure you are using the right one.
- If your Aadhaar-linked mobile has changed, update it at an Aadhaar centre first.
- Try again after some time if the portal is busy.
ABHA card vs Ayushman card: what is the difference?
People often mix these up:
- ABHA card (ABHA number): a digital health ID for every Indian. It stores and shares your health records (prescriptions, lab reports) with your consent. It is not health insurance and anyone can create one for free.
- Ayushman card (PM-JAY): the health insurance card of Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY, giving eligible families cashless treatment of up to ₹5 lakh a year at empanelled hospitals. Eligibility depends on the scheme criteria.
So an ABHA card does not give free treatment on its own. If you are looking for the ₹5 lakh hospital cover, you need the Ayushman card.
Why keep an ABHA card?
- Keep all your health records in one place, linked to your ABHA.
- Share records with a doctor or hospital digitally, with your consent.
- Faster registration at hospitals that support ABHA.
