How To Do EPFO Universal Account Number Registration?

A Universal Account Number (UAN) will be generated for each of the PF contributing members during the period 01/01/2014 to 30/06/2014 by EPFO. The UAN will act as an umbrella for the multiple Member Ids allotted to an individual by different establishments.

The idea is to link multiple Member Identification Numbers (Member Id) allotted to a single member under single Universal Account Number. This will help the member to view details of all the Member Identification Numbers (Member Id) linked to it.

If a member is already allotted Universal Account Number (UAN) then he / she is required to provide the same on joining new establishment to enable the employer to in-turn mark the new allotted Member Identification Number (Member Id) to the already allotted Universal Identification Number (UAN).

The main objective behind this new function is to capture KYC details of its members in order to eliminate the dependency on the employer and improve the quality of service.

The KYC details will be tagged against the allotted UAN rather the member id thereby eliminating the redundancy. You may contact our helpdesk at toll free no. 1800118005 from 09:15 AM to 05:45 PM on all seven days for any query relating to UAN / KYC Services.

Some Important Information From Comments

Comments:
1. How can I activate my UAN? I am an employee of Utkal Grameen Bank. My surname is wrongly posted as Pattanaik instead of Nayak. I have been already informed to our HO for rectification with evidence. HO has been informed the PF commissioner for rectification. But, I am sorry to say it is yet to be rectified.

2. Confirmation of first time employment/previous employment in your case is pending with your employer. Please contact your employer. This message for my screen. Please give me suggestions.
