What do you mean by declaring your salary?

Legal analysis: the declared salary refers to the salary used to verify the payment base, with reference to the average monthly salary of employees in the previous year. Usually, the social security center will announce the scope of the payment base. If the declared salary is lower than the lower limit of this range, the lower limit shall prevail. If the declared salary is higher than the upper limit, the upper limit shall prevail.

Legal basis: Article 74 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law. The social insurance agency shall obtain the data needed for social insurance work through business handling, statistics and investigation, and the relevant units and individuals shall provide it in a timely and truthful manner.

The social insurance agency shall establish a file for the employer in a timely manner, completely and accurately record the social insurance data such as personnel's participation in social insurance and payment, and properly keep the original vouchers for registration and declaration and accounting vouchers for payment and settlement.

The social insurance agency shall timely, completely and accurately record the individual's personal rights and interests such as social insurance payment, employer's payment and social insurance benefits, and regularly send the personal rights and interests records to me free of charge.

Employers and individuals can inquire and check the records of payment and social insurance benefits from social insurance agencies free of charge, and ask social insurance agencies to provide social insurance consultation and other related services.
