Tax alert: EPFO relaxes requirement of seeding Aadhaar with UAN for processing withdrawal claims of International Workers
5 December 2024
The EPFO has issued a circular dated 29 November 2024, relaxing the requirement of Aadhaar-UAN seeding for withdrawals for foreign nationals (qualifying as International Workers - IWs). IWs were not required to obtain Aadhaar. Effective 2021, Aadhaar-seeding with UAN was made mandatory for facilitating withdrawals/ benefits, without any exceptions for IWs.
