EPF Passbook Online

The EPF Passbook is an online passbook facility that helps users to check their EPF account statements at any time. You can check your balance statements as well as print and download. The statements can also be accessed using the EPFO app.

Various details of the employee such as his/her PF account number, the employer’s name, establishment ID, the pension scheme and EPF scheme details, the name and type of the EPF office, etc., can be found on the UAN Passbook.

However, before an individual is able to view and download his/her passbook, the activation of the Universal Account Number (UAN) must be completed. The UAN is allotted by the EPFO and the employee will be able to receive his/her UAN from the employer or from the pay slip. Employees will also be able to know their UAN by visiting the UAN portal.
