I have a social security card in my hometown. What should I do if I want to work abroad now?

You can apply for social security transfer. Social security transfer refers to the process of pension insurance relationship transfer when the insured person is employed across the overall planning area. Social security transfer needs to go through three processes, the insured only needs to apply, and the rest of the work is transferred by the social security departments of the two places.

If it is an enterprise employee, the new work unit can apply for transfer; Those who participate in the endowment insurance for enterprise employees in their personal capacity may apply for transfer to the new insured place by themselves. Specifically, workers can handle it in the national social insurance public service platform, the human resources social security government service platform and the service channels where electronic social security cards have been opened on mobile phones. After entering the system, choose a new employment place, fill in relevant information, and submit an application after face recognition and authentication.

I. Materials required for handling social security transfer

1, unit certificate or my ID card and endowment insurance manual;

2. The transfer form and personal account details of the participants in the endowment insurance issued by the social security agency in the transfer place.

Generally speaking, social security can only transfer three risks: medical insurance, endowment insurance and unemployment insurance.
