If you do have a UAN or have still not received it from your employer, you can generate it too, without much difficulty. But you must also know that you will be able to generate UAN only if the organization you work for, is registered with the EPFO. UAN is a 12 digit number allotted to every employee registered with the retirement fund body.
How to generate UAN?
1) Go the UAN Portal https://unifiedportal-mem.epfindia.gov.in/memberinterface/
2) Click on the tab ‘Know your UAN Status’. A ‘Know Your UAN’ page will appear before you.
3) Select your state and EPFO office from the dropdown menu and enter your PF number/member ID along with the other details such as your name, date of birth, mobile number and captcha code. Your PF number/member ID will be mentioned in your salary slips. Now enter the tab ‘Get Authorization Pin’.
4) You will now receive a PIN on your mobile number. Enter the PIN and click on the ‘Validate OTP and get UAN’ button.
5) Your UAN will be sent to your mobile number. You can save it for future use.
