Frequently asked questions

How to activate UAN number?

Visit the EPFO member portal, click 'Activate UAN', enter your UAN, Aadhaar, PAN, name, date of birth, mobile number, and captcha. An OTP on your Aadhaar-linked mobile completes activation. We can do this for you end-to-end.

How to activate UAN number online?

UAN activation is done online on the unified EPFO member portal. We collect your details, generate the OTP, activate the UAN, and set your login password so you can access your passbook and claims.

How to activate UAN number in EPFO?

The EPFO portal requires your UAN, Aadhaar number, PAN, name, DOB, and a mobile number linked to Aadhaar. After activation, you can log in to view passbook, update KYC, and file claims.

How to activate UAN in the UMANG app?

Open the UMANG app, search for EPFO, select 'Activate UAN', enter UAN and Aadhaar-linked mobile, and verify with OTP. The process is similar to the EPFO portal, and we can guide you through it.

How to check if UAN is active or not?

Log in to the EPFO member portal with your UAN and password. If login works, the UAN is active. You can also check status under 'KYC' and 'Service History'. We can verify this for you instantly.

What KYC must be linked to UAN?

Aadhaar, PAN, and a bank account (with IFSC) must be linked to the UAN. Aadhaar is mandatory for online claims; mismatched KYC is the most common reason for claim rejection.

Why is my UAN not active?

A UAN may not be active if it was never activated, the mobile number is not linked to Aadhaar, the employer did not generate it, or there is a mismatch in name / DOB. We identify the exact reason and fix it.

Can you activate UAN for a new employee or in bulk?

Yes — for employers, we handle bulk UAN generation, activation, and KYC seeding for all new joiners. For individuals, we activate one UAN at a time and fix related KYC issues.

How is name or DOB correction handled on UAN?

Name, DOB, and father's name corrections are filed online through the joint declaration process on the EPFO portal and tracked until approved by EPFO.
