Can a company as a legal person pay social security for itself?

Legal analysis: Yes. An enterprise as a legal person can be an employee of the company, and the company pays social security and provident fund for it. If an enterprise as a legal person is employed abroad, it may pay social insurance in the social security bureau in its own name. Legal person paying insurance is the same as employee operation. People with higher incomes will have a higher payment base, so the balance of social security accounts will be more.

Legal basis: Article 58 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law. The employing unit shall handle social insurance registration for employees within 30 days from the date of employment. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay. Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration. The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
