Can individuals apply for social security online?

Legal analysis: At present, individual social security cannot be paid online, and enterprises can declare online, but payment also needs to go to the Social Security Bureau. Individuals can only buy endowment insurance and medical insurance. Go to the social security bureau in the district where your account is located, and you'd better call the local social security bureau before you go.

Legal basis: Article 16 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). Individuals who participate in the basic old-age insurance will receive the basic old-age pension on a monthly basis if they have paid a total of fifteen years when they reach the statutory retirement age. Retirement wages can be paid by the social security center from the month after retirement. Please consult the local social security agency for details.
