Do I need to go back to the local area to cancel my social security card?

Legal analysis: Yes, but you have to apply to the Social Security Bureau to cancel the bank counter. You need a social security card to go to the local social security bureau. The citizen service center can handle it. You can directly delete the card in different places in the province and activate the new card in the window of the People's Social Security Bureau. It is necessary to transfer the medical insurance relationship, that is, transfer the medical insurance of the original unit to the new unit, so as to cancel it. Otherwise, the medical insurance payment data will be lost. It should be noted that the social security card account consists of social security account and financial account, so in addition to canceling the social security account, the social security financial account should also be cancelled.

Legal basis: Article 3 of the Labor Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that workers enjoy the rights of equal employment and occupation selection, remuneration, rest and vacation, occupational safety and health protection, vocational skills training, social insurance and welfare, submission of labor dispute settlement and other labor rights stipulated by law. Laborers should complete labor tasks, improve their professional skills, implement labor safety and health laws and regulations, and observe labor discipline and professional ethics.
