How To Link UAN-Aadhaar?

What Is An UAN?
The Universal Account Number (UAN) is a 12-digit number assigned to every member of the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). Serving as an umbrella for multiple Member IDs, the UAN links all of an individual’s EPFO accounts, even if they change jobs. This allows members to track their EPF accumulations seamlessly. A KYC-verified UAN empowers members to access various online services directly, eliminating the need for employer intervention.
How Can You Seed Your KYC details With UAN?
• Login to your EPF account at the unified member portal
• Click on the “KYC” option in the “Manage” section
• You can select the details (PAN, Bank Account, Aadhar etc) which you want to link
with UAN
• Fill in the requisite fields
• Now click on the “Save” option
• Your request will be displayed in “KYC Pending for Approval”
• Once employer approves the details the message will be changed to “Digitally
approved by the employer”
• Once UIDAI confirms your details, “Verified by UIDAI” is displayed against your
Aadhaar.
