EPFO Passbook

The EPFO Passbook is an online statement that is provided by the Employees Provident Fund Organisation and contains monthly PF contribution made by both the employee and employer. It is a digital bank passbook that displays the growth of the retirement savings of members over time.

Whenever an employer makes PF contributions, the same is recorded in the passbook of the employee under the Universal Account Number (UAN). The statement indicates the contribution of employees, employer share, pension amount, and interest credits annually.

This system assists employees to be transparent regarding their savings without having to rely on HR departments to record their savings. Regardless of whether a person changes the job or remains in the same organization, all PF contributions are combined into a single UAN, and employees can view balances at any time and plan withdrawals, transfers, or retirement savings more confidently.

Provident Fund savings constitute a significant portion of long-term financial security to most salaried employees in India. The EPFO Passbook will enable employees to know the precise amount of money saved at the end of every month and will also ensure that the employers comply with the PF deposit regulations.
