Link Multiple EPF Accounts With UAN : The Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) launched a new facility, One employee-one EPF account, to help employees consolidate their past EPF accounts, they can do this by transferring their money from the previous accounts into the current EPF account that’s linked to the Universal Account Number (UAN). This effort will not only consolidate EPF accounts, but will also bring relief to employees who have multiple accounts.

This scheme helps you transfer your money; it doesn’t automatically merge different accounts into one. This is because EPFO has a decentralized system as of now, so the EPF accounts are handled by different regional PF offices.

This facility is different from the EPFO Online Transfer Claim Portal (OTCP). In OTCP option, you are transferring all your past accounts to one without using UAN. However, in this facility, you will combine or consolidate multiple EPF Accounts online under one umbrella called UAN. So, using this option, you can see all your past EPF accounts under your UAN. This is easier for you at least to see and track all your past EPF accounts. Because UAN is the future for EPF.
