Does the social security paid by yourself without working count as years of service?

Social security paid in this way also counts as years of service.

The calculation of the length of service is not directly related to whether or not you work, but is related to the time you pay for social security. The length of service refers to the period of time that an employee has worked since the establishment of the labor relationship with the unit, with wage income as the main source or all the sources of work. Social security contribution years refers to the time when an individual participates in social insurance and pays social security fees. Whether the unit pays or the individual pays, as long as the social security is paid, it can be counted as years of service.

Even if you do not work, your own social security contributions can be used as a basis for calculating your length of service.
