Senior Citizen PVC Card Print

Senior citizen card PVC print: what you get

A wallet-size PVC print of the senior citizen identity card you already hold, made from the PDF or a flat scan you upload at checkout. This one page is for cards from every state and union territory: the Maharashtra ज्येष्ठ नागरिक ओळखपत्र, the Karnataka senior citizen card, Delhi’s card from the Department of Social Welfare, the Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, Rajasthan and other state cards, and the Senior Citizen Concession cards issued by Indian Railways, state transport undertakings and municipal corporations. Select your state above the Add to cart button so the print team knows which layout to expect. We print the file exactly as it is: no edits, no corrections, no changes to the photo or the date of birth. We are not the issuing department and we cannot apply for, renew or correct a card.

Who is a senior citizen, and why the cards differ

Under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, a senior citizen is anyone aged 60 or above. The card itself is a state or local matter: each state’s social welfare or social justice department (or in some states the district collector) issues its own design, with its own application portal, documents and validity. Concessions such as rail and bus fare discounts, priority queues, property-tax rebates and hospital counters are tied to the issuing body’s rules, so the card tells the person checking it which scheme you are under. Ask the department that issued your card what it entitles you to; a printed copy does not add or remove any entitlement.

Where to get the card file, by state

• Maharashtra: the digitally signed card from the Aaple Sarkar / social justice portal, downloaded as a PDF. It has a front with the photo and a back with holder instructions and emergency contacts; upload both sides. It also names the site where the digital signature can be verified.
• Karnataka: the Department for Empowerment of Differently Abled and Senior Citizens issues the card through Seva Sindhu; download the approved card PDF from your application.
• Delhi: the Department of Social Welfare card, downloadable from the e-District portal after approval.
• Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh: each state’s e-services portal gives a downloadable card or certificate after approval; where only a paper card was issued, scan it flat at 300 dpi or higher with all four edges visible.
• Railway and transport concession cards: the card or certificate issued by the railway division or the state transport undertaking; scan it flat if it is paper.

If your state issues a certificate rather than a card, we fit the certificate’s photo, name, date of birth and number into card size and print the rest on the back; tell us on WhatsApp if you want a particular layout.

A sturdier card for daily use

Paper and laminated senior citizen cards wear out quickly because they come out at every bank counter, railway booking window and clinic. A PVC copy survives the wallet, does not fade, and is easier to read than a folded A4 printout. Because it is a copy, keep the original card or the PDF at home and note the expiry date if your card has one.

Check these before you order

• Read the name, date of birth, card number and validity on your file against your original. We cannot correct a mistake after printing.
• Upload the original PDF or a flat, clear scan, not a photo of a screen; upload both sides where the card has a back.
• A printed card is a convenience copy. Banks, railways and government offices may ask for the original or the digital card, so keep those too.

Common questions

Can I use the printed card for railway concessions?

Railway staff usually accept any valid proof of age; whether they accept a privately printed copy of a state card is up to the official. Carry the original or the PDF on your phone as well.

Can I order for my parents?

Yes. Upload their card file and ship to any address in India. Many families order both parents’ cards together with the Ayushman Bharat card in one parcel.

My card is only a letter or certificate, not a card. Can you still print it?

Yes. Upload the certificate and we fit the identity details to card size; say in the order note if you want the full text on the back.
