What Is My UAN: Simple Steps to Find Your UAN

Employees Provident Fund (EPF) is a benefit provided to many salaried employees in India. The Provident Fund ensures that you can put a large portion of your salary into long-term savings, and in most cases your employer will match your contributions to the Provident Fund. One of the important things you need to check your provident fund balance is your Universal Account Number (UAN), which is the number assigned to you by the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). Once allocated, the UAN becomes a universal number that helps you track your EPF as it moves across organizations. Just share your UAN with your new employer and your EPF contributions will start reflecting under the same figure.
