I need to provide a social security certificate for six months before I can join the new company. Can I not pay?

To be exact, it is mainly your social security personal number, and the payment voucher or other information that proves that you didn't owe the premium until the new unit arrived that month.

Article 72 of Chapter 9 of the Labor Law stipulates: "Employers and laborers must participate in social insurance and pay social insurance premiums according to law."

The first paragraph of Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law stipulates that the employer shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for its 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.

Social insurance belongs to the national compulsory insurance, and all units and individuals that establish labor relations must participate, which is clearly stipulated in Article 72 of the Labor Law.
