Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Who is eligible for PF and ESI registration?
PF registration is generally mandatory for establishments employing 20 or more persons (though lower thresholds apply in specific sectors or upon voluntary agreement). ESI registration applies to non-seasonal factories employing 10 or more persons, and establishments meeting notified state-level thresholds for commercial entities.
2. What documents are required for PF and ESI registration?
Required documentation typically includes the business PAN card, incorporation certificate or business license, address proof of the establishment, digital signatures of directors or partners, cancelled cheques, and comprehensive employee details including Aadhaar and bank particulars.
