Can children use social security cards when flying?

Legal analysis: No, children's medical insurance cards are not allowed to fly. Because the medical insurance card is not a valid identification. There are only two valid identity documents in China. The first is the most basic household registration book. Another is the ID card. In the past, sometimes a driver's license was ok under special circumstances. The medical insurance card is not a valid identification, so it is not allowed.

Legal basis: Article 14 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Resident Identity Cards is under any of the following circumstances, citizens shall show their resident identity cards to prove their identity:

(a) the registered items of permanent residence have changed;

(2) military service registration;

(3) Marriage registration and adoption registration;

(4) Going through exit formalities;

(5) Other circumstances in which it is necessary to prove identity with a resident ID card as stipulated by laws and administrative regulations.
