A UAN number is required to join the Employees Provident Fund. Although the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) allows employers to generate the Universal Account Number (commonly known as UAN) of their employees through its portal, individual users can also create their own UAN online.
UAN means Universal Account Number. This is a unique 12-digit number that is permanently allocated to EPFO subscribers. After getting your 12 digit UAN number ready, you can check your Employees Provident Fund (EPF) account. It also allows you to check your passbook and check the total amount in your EPF account.
