How To Register Aadhar Based E Sign At PF Unified Portal

EPFO has introduced Aadhar based E sign for approving employee KYC details. The main reason behind introducing Aadhar based E sign is there are so many difficulties in using the digital signature in unified PF portal, there are so many problems with Java installation and browser settings. Now there is no need to worry about these things, now employers can easily register their aadhar based e sign in unified PF portal. Here is the complete process on how to register Aadhar based E sign at PF unified portal.

Employers can use aadhar based e sign along with their active digital signature.

Aadhar based e sign registration will be done in two cases, One is for the employers who already have active digital signature and second case is for the employers who don’t have registered digital signature in EPF portal.

The benefit for the employers who have active digital signature is they don’t need to visit EPF office to get approval for their aadhar based e sign. The remaining employers who don’t have active digital signature need to visit their regional EPF office along with request letter generated in unified PF portal.

  8. Good work

    but what about the employer whose DSC is yet pending for the approval from EPFO office??? can we register their e – sign?
    and how to use e- sign function? do we need to attach DSC to pc?

    Reply
    • Hi Imran,
      There is no need to attach DSC To system when you use e sign, it is completely separate from DSC. The functions of e-sign are as same as Digital signature. If your DSC is pending for approval, you need to submit PDF file of e-sign request letter to EPFO office. If EPFO staff cooperate the approval process will take less than 5 minutes.

      • Thank you
        So i can understand from your statement that , Digital Signature is as same as e-sign and the usage is both of the same for digital approving on epfo portal.
