Can I get a refund if I don't buy social security for several years

Legal analysis: you can't get a refund if you don't buy it. If you surrender, you can get a refund. Surrender is conditional, social security can not be surrendered, but will only be transferred and merged with the workplace. But if you pay off halfway, the Social Security Bureau will also keep your account balance. When you retire, you can apply for account balance at the local social security window with your social security card or ID card.

Legal basis: Article 14 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that individual accounts shall not be withdrawn in advance, and the bookkeeping interest rate shall not be lower than the bank time deposit interest rate, and interest tax shall be exempted. If an individual dies, the balance of the individual account can be inherited.
