Digi Yatra is an initiative by the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA) and airport stakeholders. It allows digital processing of passengers at an airport across various touchpoints using facial biometrics. This technology provides a Biometric Enabled Seamless Travel (BEST) experience based on facial verification.

The Digi Yatra App by the Digi Yatra Foundation is currently available on the Google Play Store (Android) and App Store (iOS).

All domestic passengers can use the seamless travel experience provided by Digi Yatra.

Digi Yatra speeds up the passenger journey from airport entry to boarding using facial biometrics. Passengers can simply link their travel details and ID in advance, and a quick face scan gets them from entry to boarding faster and with less hassle.

To register on the Digi Yatra application, please follow these steps:

1. Passengers have to go to the​ Google Play Store (Android) or Apple App Store (iOS) and download the Digi Yatra app.

2.  Passengers can register using their phone number with the OTP (One-Time Password) sent to their phone.

3. Passengers need to link their Aadhaar credentials either with Aadhaar or using Digi Locker.

4. If passengers have not already registered on Digi Locker with their Aadhaar ID, they must complete registration before proceeding.

5. Passengers need to take a selfie and validate it with their Aadhaar ID.

6. Before their flight, passengers can scan their boarding pass or upload it as an image or PDF.

7. After scanning, passengers need to provide consent to share their credentials and boarding pass data with MgIA for confirmation.

By following these steps, passengers will be able to successfully register on the Digi Yatra platform.

Upon arriving at the airport, please follow these steps:
