A new feature called the “Member Passbook” has been introduced by the Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). This will keep a track of all your transactions that are made towards the provident fund over the years. You can also download this EPF member passbook by using your Universal Account Number (UAN).

UAN is a unique number that is allocated to every employee irrespective of whether he/she works for the government or private companies. This number is allocated when these employees start contributing to PF. Therefore, by using this facility, you can see all your entries and keep an account of the same in your EPF passbook.

EPF Passbook is similar to your bank passbook. It provides you with all the information that is relevant to your deposits, withdrawals and pension contributions. In addition to that, you can also view details in your UAN passbooks like member ID, personal details, EPF balance, establishment code, etc.

It is mandatory that you have your 12 digit UAN number before you download your EPF passbook. In case you do not have your UAN, contact your employer to provide you with one. You also have to register on the EPFO portal and activate (article link) your UAN.
