If you’re planning to visit the holy temples of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri, Yamunotri, or Hemkund Sahib in Uttarakhand, you must complete your Chardham Yatra registration first.
Don’t worry — the process is super simple! The Uttarakhand government offers both online and offline options for registration, so every pilgrim can do it easily.
To make your journey smoother, Epic Yatra helps you with the complete registration process and travel arrangements. Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to help you complete your Char Dham and Hemkund Sahib online registration without any stress.
The government may also start a token system for regular darshans, while online registration will be needed for special pujas like Rudrabhishek.
Update: Offline registration will begin soon.
Good news: The Char Dham registration process is completely free — there’s no fee at all!
Yes, absolutely! You can skip long lines by registering online in just a few minutes. Simply visit the official Char Dham registration website and follow the easy steps.
If you need any help, Epic Yatra makes it even easier by guiding you through the online Char Dham Yatra registration process and helping you plan your full pilgrimage package.
You can register for the Char Dham Yatra 2026 in different ways — online, through mobile, or even by phone. The process is made simple so that every pilgrim, young or old, can do it easily.
There are two main modes of registration available for all devotees:
1. Online Yatra Registration Mode – Register easily through the official website, mobile app, WhatsApp, or helpline number.
2. Offline Yatra Registration Mode – Visit the nearest biometric registration centre in Uttarakhand to complete the process in person.
You can register online for individuals or for a group from your home using the official website: registrationandtouristcare.uk.gov.in
Example: Imagine you live in Chennai or any other city and want to visit Kedarnath. Instead of standing in long queues, you open the website, enter your details, upload your ID proof, and get your registration slip instantly. Easy and stress-free!
Download the Tourist Care Uttarakhand app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
It lets you register, track your route, and check live updates about weather and traffic.
Example:
You’re already on your way to Haridwar. While travelling, you open the app on your phone, complete your registration in 2 minutes, and receive your e-pass — no laptop needed!
Send a message saying “Yatra” on WhatsApp to +91-8394833833.
You’ll get instructions to complete your registration easily through chat.
Example:
Let’s say you’re not tech-savvy. You simply open WhatsApp, type “Yatra”, send it to the number, and follow the steps—just like chatting with a friend!
You can also register by calling the toll-free number 0135-1364.
The support team will guide you step-by-step through the registration process.
Example:
If your internet isn’t working, just call the number. The support team will help you fill out the form and confirm your registration over the phone.
Tip from Epic Yatra: No matter which method you choose, Epic Yatra can guide you through the process and help you plan a smooth and stress-free Char Dham Yatra 2026 journey.
If you prefer doing things in person, you can complete your Char Dham Yatra 2026 registration offline too. The government has set up biometric registration centres at many important locations in Uttarakhand. These centres help you register easily before starting your yatra.
How Offline Yatra Registration Works: Offline registration is like checking in at an office counter.
You visit a nearby Char Dham registration centre, show your Aadhaar card or any valid ID, and they take your photo and fingerprint. After that, you’ll receive a biometric slip — this slip is your official entry pass for the yatra.
Example: Let’s say you reach Haridwar by train. Before heading to Kedarnath, you visit the registration counter at the station, give your ID, and within a few minutes, you get your biometric card — ready to travel ahead!
Note: Offline registration is free and available during the yatra season. However, lines can get long during peak time. If you want to save time, Epic Yatra can help you complete your online registration before you even reach Uttarakhand. This way, your journey starts smoothly and without waiting in queues.

Biometric registration is very important for everyone going on the Char Dham Yatra.
It helps the government and Epic Yatra make your trip safe, organized, and worry-free.
Biometric verification means your fingerprint, photo, and ID are recorded once you register.
This helps the officials know who is traveling, where they are, and if they are safe during the Yatra.
If any emergency happens in the mountains, your biometric data helps rescue teams find and help you quickly.
It’s like a safety tag that tells where you are on your journey.
Every year, thousands of people visit Char Dham.
Biometric registration helps control the crowd and manage routes so everyone can have a peaceful and smooth darshan.
Yes! You can do biometric registration offline too.
There are many physical registration centers in Uttarakhand — like in Haridwar, Rishikesh, Guptkashi, Sonprayag, Joshimath, and more.
Just visit any nearby center, show your ID proof, give your fingerprints, and your biometric registration will be done in a few minutes.
