Do I need a photo to reissue my social security card?

Normally, it is not necessary. You only need to bring your personal ID card to the local social security agency or the social security designated commercial bank for replacement. The social security agency or bank will report the loss of the client's medical insurance card, and then reissue a new card for the client.

Legal basis: Article 23 of the Social Security Law stipulates that employees should participate in the basic medical insurance for employees, and employers and employees should pay the basic medical insurance premiums in accordance with state regulations.

What materials do I need to reissue my social security card?

1. If the social security card is lost, stolen or damaged, it should be reported to the nearest social security agency and reissued with the ID card (or household registration certificate).

2. When handling the social security card, the original medical insurance ic card also needs to provide a one-inch color photo (subject to the photo of the second-generation ID card).

3. If you entrust others to handle it, you should bring the ID card (or household registration book) of the principal and agent.

4. The expenses incurred during the loss or damage of the social security card shall be reimbursed at one time after inspection, which is the last medical expenses incurred before the loss is reported.
