How to Generate and Activate UAN?

Universal Account Number (UAN) is a 12-digit number assigned to every member of the EPFO. It helps an employee to obtain and manage information related to their EPF account. Find out EPF applicability details and how the UAN can be generated and activated step-by-step.

As per the provisions of Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 establishments with 20 or more employees must mandatorily register with the Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). Under the Employee Provident Fund (EPF) scheme, an employee is required to pay a minimum of 12% of basic wages towards the scheme. The employer is also required to make an equal contribution to the employee’s account, but not exceeding 12%.

Universal Account Number (UAN) is a twelve-digit number assigned to every member of the EPFO, that helps an employee to obtain and manage information related to their EPF account. An employee may have multiple Member Identification Numbers (Member ID) when they change employer, but the UAN remains the same.

Documents Required for UAN Activation

The mandatory documents required for UAN registration and authentication:

  • Bank account information including the IFSC code, account number, and branch name.
  • The PAN Card: Your PAN must be connected to the UAN.
  • The Aadhaar Card: Because the mobile number and bank account are connected to your Aadhaar card, it’s required to be provided in order to obtain a UAN.
  • Some other ID or residence evidence that might be necessary.

UAN generation Through the UAN Portal

EPFO assigns a unique UAN to every employee at the time of initial registration to the EPF Scheme by the employer. It can quickly be done on the EPFO employer portal, provided the employer has registered the establishment through Shram Suvidha Portal. To register an employee for UAN, the employer has to perform the following steps:

UAN generation

UAN generation

1. Visit Government of India  EPFO Homepage

UAN generation

2. Sign in to Establishment using establishment ID and password
3. Click on “Register Individual” tab in the “Member” section
4. Enter the employee’s details such as PAN, Aadhaar, bank details, etc.
5. Approve all details in the “Approval” section.

A new UAN will be generated for the employee which can be easily linked to the PF account. To avoid duplication, the employer needs to ensure that valid documents such as identity proof, address proof, bank details, and Permanent Account Number (PAN) are collected for registration during the employee onboarding, both in the form of soft copy and hard copy for future reference. In case an employee already has a UAN, they just have to let the new employer know of their existing UAN.

It is the duty of the employer to inform the employees of their UAN number. But in case they do not, an employee can obtain their UAN with their Member ID, PAN, Adhaar from the EPFO portal by following the steps below:

1. Visit  Member Home

UAN generation

2. Click on the link “know your UAN status”
3. Enter the required details (PAN or Aadhar or Member ID)
4. Click on “Get Authorization Pin” to get an OTP on the registered mobile number.
5. Enter OTP to receive SMS that will include the UAN and its status

UAN Activation Through the UAN Portal

An employee can perform UAN activation at the UAN member portal by following the steps below:
1. Visit the UAN eSewa  portal

3. Enter the required details (PAN or Aadhar or Member ID)
4. Click on “Get Authorization Pin” to get an OTP to the registered mobile number.
5. Enter OTP and click on Activate UAN to make UAN active.

Once the UAN activation process is completed, the member will receive a password in their registered mobile number which can be changed as per their choice.

Using the UAN as user id and password a member can log in to MEMBER e- SEWA to avail the EPF passbook service. The UAN passbook service lets the member keep track and manage their EPF balance from the comfort of their home.

Linking Aadhaar to UAN

Online procedure:

1. Visit Member Home
2. Sign in to the MEMBER e-SEWA using UAN and password
3. Select “KYC” under the “Manage” tab
4. Select the option for “‘Aadhaar’”
5. Enter the required details (name and Aadhaar Number)
5. Click “Save”
The process of Aadhaar link is completed when “verified” status is shown next to the Aadhaar number.

Offline procedure:

The offline procedure of linking Aadhaar to UAN is by visiting any of the EPFO’s branches or Aadhaar CSE (Common Service Centre). There, the member needs to submit a request form with a self-attested copy of their Aadhaar card. Upon verification, it will be done which shall be confirmed by a notification to the registered mobile number.

EPFO has come a long way since its inception in 1952. It has taken various steps along the way from providing a social security service to making EPF claim settlement easier, and UAN is one such significant step.

FAQ’s

1. You can activate your UAN again if you change jobs?

Since UAN is a unique identification number that can be used only once, it need not be activated again any time you switch jobs.

2. Why is there a need to provide all the previous member IDs in the Universal Account Number?

The purpose of a Universal Account Number is to consolidate all the Member Identification Numbers that have been issued to an individual employee. This consolidates the information about all the schemes under which an employer has made contributions on behalf of an employee, making it easier for the employee to check all his/her accounts.

As per the new proposed changes, employees would need to disclose their previous Member ID or UAN in Form-11.

3. Can employees on contract register for the UAN and avail online facilities?

Employers with 20 or more permanent employees are required to generate Universal Account Numbers for employees making ₹ 15,000 a month or more from the sixth of the following month onward.

4. Is the application for UAN registration free of charge?

The Universal Account Number (UAN) is free to activate, and there is no fee of any kind associated with it.

5. Is it the employer or some government authority that assigns UAN?

The Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) distributes Universal Account Number (UAN) to an employee when he or she enrolls with the EPF.

6. You can use your UAN to transfer funds even if you do not link Aadhaar with it?

You cannot transfer funds or claim pension fund withdrawal unless your Aadhaar number is linked with your UAN. You must seed your Aadhaar number with your UAN.

7. For any online claims, is UAN mandatory?

For any kind of online claims associated with PF or pension, you need a valid UAN.

8. Is it possible to get more than just one UAN?

9. For an employee who is a PF subscriber, is the PAN linked with the UAN?

Yes, UAN has to be mandatorily linked with PAN. Moreover, a subscriber must also ensure that Aadhaar is also linked.

10. Are employers allowed to withhold employee provident fund (EPF) balances upon firing an employee or terminating a contract?

      Sadly, as of now there is no online option to change/correct your father’s name. You can get your father’s name changed offline by filling out a joint declaration form, attaching documents and physically submit the same to your employer who will then send it to EPFO.

      Hi Gayathri,

      EPFO didn’t allot UANs for employees who resigned prior to Dec 2013, In case you’re still employed after December 2013, then you can either contact the employer or send them your correct member id to get UAN.

      EPF account will not become invalid. You need to give the correct details while seeding login credentials. By resetting the password, you will be able to submit the online PF claim. If an error still occurs, then you can contact the respective PF office and submit the physical claim form.

If your details don’t match the records, then you can submit the joint declaration form to the employer with necessary enclosures for correction in PF records. Once the corrections are administered, you will be able to activate your UAN.

      Hi Baskkaran,

      If you have less than 10 years of contributions then you can withdraw both PF and Pension amounts accumulated in your PF account number.

      In case your contributions exceed 10 years you can only claim PF. As for the pension amount, you will get a certain sum on a monthly basis; however, you will have to submit all the necessary documents.

      Hi Omanakumari,

      UAN was allotted by the EPFO during the year 2014. Any employee who resigned before 2014 will not have a UAN.

      On the basis of the PF Number, an employee can either approach the employer or the respective PF office to know details about PF accumulations.

      Hi K Paramesh,

      You need to link your current mobile number to your Aadhaar card. Once done, you can link your Aadhaar to your UAN as part of KYC so that you can avail the online PF benefits. Please note that linking of the updated Aadhaar Number to your UAN as part of the KYC process has to be approved by your employer through Digital Signature Certificate (DSC).

      Hi Alagarsamy,

      The way I see it, the only way you can change your password or modify details on the PF portal is by changing your mobile number. Before updating the new mobile number on the PF portal, please ensure that you update the same (or any other details) on your Aadhaar card.

      To updates demographic details (Name, Address, DoB, Gender, Mobile Number, Email) as well as Biometrics (Finger Prints, Iris & Photograph) in Aadhaar you will have to visit Permanent Enrolment Center.

      Once Aadhaar details are updated, please visit the EPFO member portal, log in, and under ”Manage” click on ”Modify Basic Details”.

      Hi Hiren,

      Since you quit before 2013 and withdrew PF you cannot link the old member id with your current UAN.

      As for the Scheme Certificate, you can surrender it to your present employer’s PF office by mentioning the present employer’s PF details.

      Rishabh Ranjan

      Hi Bhagabat,

      With regard to employee name, gender, and date of birth, the correction can be made online through your UAN (by logging into the PF portal) and with an Aadhaar card. Please ensure that your name, surname and other personal details are updated for your Aadhaar, PAN, and bank account.

      For the correction of father’s name, date of joining , date of leaving etc., the process to correct/edit details needs to be initiated by submitting a joint declaration form duly attested by the employer.

    Does demographic details means only name dob and gender ?
    In my name in aadhar ( shrikrishna) and in epfo it is (shri krishna) does that extra space is the one which is causing issue?

      You need to visit the Aadhaar facilitation centre in order to get the demographic error rectified. This can be fixed by redoing the biometric if all the details in Aadhaar card are correct, such as name, father’s name, gender and date of birth.

      Hi SR,

      You are eligible for pension.

      You need to apply with Form 10D; fill all details in the form to avail monthly pension.

    Sir,
    I left Job in 2006. I claimed my PF and for EPF I was issued a certificate for pension. I am due for pension from march 2022. I submitted form 10D for claim of pension with relevant document such as PAN Adhar self and family photo bank account PENSION CERTIFICATE etc. It has been rejected saying generate UAN no through Employer and get a joint declaration with employer. I have no idea how to go about. I have not worked after 2006 with any organisation. How to generate the UAN now. kindly help and advise

      Hi Gurudath,

      Since you quit during the year 2006, no UAN was generated or allotted to your EPF Number.

      You can approach the PF office in person with all the documents related to pension in order to get pension benefits.

      Hi Gaurav,

      You can log into the EPFO portal with your UAN and password to view all your PF details. For UAN, you can check your payslips.

      Hi JBSingha,

      Since you contributed for more than 10 years towards PF, you are eligible for pension benefits and the same can be claimed after attaining 58 years of age by submitting Form 10D.

      Hi Jithender,

      I suggest you or the nominee (dependent) contact the respective employer with your mother’s death certificate to withdraw the PF amount.
