Multiple job changes may result in multiple UAN numbers. Each employer generates an Employee Member Id for contributing to employees EPF account and theoretically link it same UAN number. But one may end up with multiple UAN numbers. Now you can merge the different UAN numbers by logging in to UAN website and asking for the transfer of old UAN to new UAN. The process is similar to transferring a Member Id of the old employer to new employer.
How to Merge 2 UAN accounts
Ideally, an Employee who is an EPF member can have only one UAN and can have multiple member-IDs linked to it. But one may end up having multiple UAN in following cases.
On joining a new company, you have to inform your new employer about your existing UAN number. Your new employer will then open new member-ID and link this to your previous UAN. If you do not provide your existing UAN, a new UAN can be generated by your new company which results in duplicate UAN numbers being allotted.
When you leave your company, your employer has to furnish ‘the date of exit’ details in the ECR (Electronic Challan cum Return). If they do not provide this information in-time and meanwhile you join a new establishment, this can result in two UAN numbers being allotted to you
To use the facility employee must have activated their UAN to which they want to transfer and should have linked their Aadhaar, PAN, bank account details with IFSC code and verified PAN and Aadhaar.
Go to the EPFO UAN members’ portal and log in using your UAN and password. Use the UAN you want to transfer to.
Verify that all your details are populated in the UAN portal. No missing or incorrect information.
Verify that your KYC is approved.
Please check that your Bank Account Number, IFSC code is correct.
