Read the steps + FAQs below. Written for patients, not policy documents.
What you'll need
Keep these details ready, complete submissions reduce delays.
- Your driving licence number and date of birth.
- ID with your exact name, such as Aadhaar.
- Your Sarathi application number, if you have one.
- Your glasses or a photo of your prescription.
- A list of medicines you take, and records of any condition you declare.
How it works
A simple flow that feels like a modern healthcare app, not a confusing form.
Write your details
Use your name exactly as on your driving licence and Sarathi application, with the same spelling, spacing and initials. Name mismatches are a common reason for a form to bounce.
Answer the health declaration honestly
Say yes or no to each condition listed on the form. A wrong answer can cost you the licence later. If a condition applies, tell the doctor and carry your records.
The doctor examines you
The doctor checks vision in each eye, colour vision and hearing, and goes through your declaration. You do not fill these boxes, even if the doctor offers.
The doctor signs
A correct form is signed and dated by the doctor, with the doctor's name and registration details readable. Check that no box is left empty.
Check, then upload
Compare the name and date of birth with your Sarathi application. Then upload the PDF with your documents, or let our doctor submit it online against your application number.
Trust, legitimacy & privacy
Clear answers to the questions people have before paying.
Two parts, two people
You complete and sign the declaration. The doctor completes and signs the examination part. Both are needed.
Digital and paper forms match
An online Form 1A has the same sections as a paper one. The signature is digital.
Keep it private
A filled Form 1A shows your address, ID and health findings. Do not post it on social media or in public groups.
