Does the reissued social security card need to be reactivated?

The reissued social security card needs to be reactivated. Because the process of reissuing a social security card is equivalent to reissuing a new social security card, although the information of the original card is the same, key information such as the card number may have changed. Therefore, in order to ensure the normal use of the new card, it needs to be reactivated.

First, the social security card replacement process

When the social security card is lost or damaged, the cardholder needs to go to the social security card service center or the relevant bank to reissue it. When reissued, it is usually necessary to provide valid identity documents, proof of loss reporting of social security cards (if reported) and relevant application forms. After verification, the social security card service center or bank will issue a new social security card to the cardholder.

Second, the new social security card needs to be reactivated.

Because there may be some differences between the newly reissued social security card and the original card in some key information, such as card number and expiration date, it needs to be reactivated. The activation process usually includes setting or resetting the password, binding personal information and other steps to ensure the security and availability of the new card.

Activation methods usually include the following:

1. To activate at the social security card service center or the bank counter, the cardholder needs to carry a valid ID card and a newly reissued social security card, and complete the activation operation according to the instructions of the staff.

2. Activate through designated network channels, such as social security card official website, mobile phone APP, etc. The cardholder needs to input relevant information according to the prompt to complete the activation process.

During the activation process, cardholders need to pay attention to protecting personal information and account security to avoid revealing passwords or important information.

Three. Precautions for use after activation

After the new social security card is activated, the cardholder can use its functions normally, such as medical insurance settlement and social security inquiry. In the process of use, the cardholder shall properly keep the social security card to avoid loss or damage. At the same time, pay regular attention to the use of social security cards and account security. If there is any abnormality, contact the social security card service center or the bank for handling.

To sum up:

The reissued social security card needs to be reactivated to ensure that the new card can be used normally. Cardholders need to activate according to the prescribed procedures and requirements, and pay attention to protecting personal information and account security. In the process of use, we should properly keep the social security card and pay attention to its use and account security.
