Hello, foreigners buying a new house in Shanghai can't meet the two-year social security. What if it takes another two months?

You can buy it if you stop paying at present.

As long as you can provide proof that you have paid social security or personal tax for more than 2 years in this city in the first 3 years from the date of purchase.

You can go to any district real estate trading center in Shanghai to consult and verify my answer.

Because of the purchase restriction, foreigners need to meet three conditions when buying a house in Shanghai:

1. Property buyers must be married.

2. Buyers originally didn't have a house in Shanghai.

3. Can provide social security or personal tax payment certificates that have been paid continuously for more than 2 years in this city within the first 3 years from the date of purchase.
