Can social security cards be activated in foreign banks?

The social security card cannot be activated in different places, but it can be activated by hotline or official website. The social security card financial account can be activated by inter-provincial banks, but the medical insurance account cannot be activated in different places. At present, the activation of social security accounts is mainly carried out through social security counters and designated pharmacies. If it is in a different place, the device cannot extract the information of the insured, so it cannot be activated. There are four ways to activate the social security card: 1. Activation of the bank to which the social security card belongs: the insured can bring his valid ID card and social security card to the local bank to activate the social security card; 2. Activation of designated hospitals: When the insured person carries the social security card to the designated medical insurance hospital for medical treatment, he can use the social security card to pay for reimbursement and activate the social security card; 3. Social Security Bureau window activation: bring my valid ID card and social security card to the local social security bureau to activate the business; 4. Call activation: call the social security service hotline, provide information such as my ID card and social security card according to the voice prompt, or transfer the manual service to activate the social security card.
