Employers in India have to mandatorily go through PF registration if they have a minimum of 20 employees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Eligible employers need to register all their employees on the EPFO portal. EPFO assigns a 12-digit Universal Account Number (UAN) to every employee. Like Permanent Account Number (PAN), UAN is also constant throughout the employee\u2019s life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
