EPF members need to activate their UAN‌ number to avail various online facilities related to the PF scheme like PF passbook download, PF transfer and PF withdrawal, and correction of PF‌ details, etc. If you don’t activate your UAN number then you need to depend on your employer or PF office for every small PF related works.
Every employee who is contributing to EPF will have a UAN number and PF account number. If you don’t know your UAN number then you can find it with your PF‌ account number at UAN member portal.
UAN Activation Process
Step 1: Go to UAN member portal and click on activate UAN option.
Step 2: If you already knew your UAN then enter it, otherwise enter your PF member id, or aadhar number or PAN number (which must be already linked to your UAN)
Step 3: Now enter your name, date of birth, mobile number and captcha appearing on the screen and click on get authorization pin.
Step 4: Now you will receive an OTP‌ and enter that OTP‌and click on validate OTP‌ and activate UAN. Now your UAN will be activated & it will be sent to your mobile number, after that you need to set up a password.
You will be able to download your PF passbook after 24 hrs from the time of activating your UAN.

Without login on the UAN member portal, we cannot know whether our details are correct or not.
You can request those details from your employer. They will see them on their employer portal.
Sir, when I try to activate my UAN it shows “your UAN is not allocated to any establishment”.
Can you please tell me why is it showing like this?
Please check your PF passbook, to know whether the PF contributions are crediting to that account or not.
If every month PF is crediting to that UAN associate PF account, then register a complain on the EPF grievance portal website.

Hi, after adding UAN number and aadhar details. It get otp. Once I enter OTP. It shows name received from uidai services does not match with the available data in unified portal. Please help me with this
Check whether your name in Aadhar and PF portal is matching or not, if they are not matching then you have to correct the wrong one.
How to change if we have mismatch name in aadhar and pf account
If your PF details are wrong then you can correct those details online (UAN portal) using your Aadhar number.
If your Aadhar details are wrong then you have to correct them by visiting your nearest Aadhar enrollment center.

It happens when your PF details like name, dob, and gender do not match with your PF account.
So ask your employer to show those details.
Hi Sir,
I am trying to activate my UAN. For that, once I add my aadhar details and enter OTP, it gives me error saying that Gender does not match with UIDAI Details.
Could you help in what could this issue be.
Thanks
Shrey
i.e your gender details on your Aaadhar or PF account were wrongly mentioned.
So you have to correct the wrong one.
If it is wrong on PF then submit PF joint declaration form to your PF office.
If on Aadhar, visit your nearest Aadhar enrollment center for correction of gender details.
