Is DigiLocker available outside India?

Published in Digital Identity 1 min read

No, DigiLocker is primarily designed for use within India.

DigiLocker requires an Indian mobile number for registration. According to current information, Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) cannot sign up for DigiLocker using a foreign mobile number. This restriction effectively limits its accessibility to individuals with active Indian mobile numbers, which are typically associated with residency in India.

While the documents stored in DigiLocker might be accessible from anywhere with an internet connection after successful registration with an Indian mobile number, the initial registration process necessitates an Indian mobile number. Therefore, its usability is restricted for those who reside outside India and do not possess or have access to an active Indian mobile number.
