In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the essential steps of UAN login, portal registration, activation, and status checks, empowering you to take control of your financial future.

Understanding UAN (Universal Account Number)

The Universal Account Number (UAN) is a unique 12-digit identification number assigned to every employee contributing to the Employee Provident Fund (EPF) in India. It acts as a common identifier for multiple Member Identification Numbers (Member IDs) allotted to a single employee during different employments. The primary objective behind the UAN is to simplify the provident fund management process, making it more transparent and accessible for employees across various organizations.

UAN Portal Registration

The first step towards harnessing the benefits of UAN is to register on the UAN portal. This portal is a user-friendly platform that allows employees to access and manage their provident fund details online. To initiate the registration process, follow these steps:
