  1. The Universal Account Number (UAN) is a unique 12-digit number required for EPFO services like checking PF balance, filing claims, and updating KYC.

  2. UAN can be retrieved online via the EPFO Unified Member Portal using OTP authentication with a registered mobile number and Aadhaar, PAN, or Member ID.

  3. For offline recovery, members can send an SMS with EPFOHO UAN to 7738299899 or call a missed call number to receive their UAN via SMS.

  4. UAN remains constant throughout a member's working life, linking multiple PF accounts from different employers.
