Compliance

UAN stands for Universal Account Number. It is a 12-digit number allotted by the EPFO to every employee who is a member of the Employees’ Provident Fund.

The UAN stays the same for life, even if you change jobs. Each new employer’s PF account is linked to the same UAN, so your contributions from different employers can be seen and transferred under one number. Employers need a UAN for each employee to file the monthly PF return.
