Transferring your provident fund or PF account is necessary when you switch jobs. If you have opted for the scheme with the new employer, you only have to transfer your existing account to the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since your UAN remains the same even when switching jobs, there is no need to create a new provident fund account. Transferring the account only changes your customer ID.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can transfer your account online through the official portal of the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). <\/span><\/p>\n
