Photo ID number in CoWin is simply the number on a user’s ID that they want to use to register themselves with. The users are supposed to select an ID for verification that has a photo of the user. This implies that a user can enter details of their Aadhaar Card number, Driving License, PAN card, Passport, Pension Passbook, NPR Smart Card or Voter ID.

CoWin photo id number is simply the document's number

As soon as a user selects which ID proof do they want to use for verification, the “Photo ID Number” changes and asks for the number of the selected ID. For example, if a user has selected Aadhar Card as their verification proof, then the “Photo ID Number” option will change to “Aadhar Number”. So then the user will simply have to enter their Aadhar Card.
