What information do I need to prepare for social security retirement?

Legal analysis: the insured who has gone through the retirement formalities should go through the retirement formalities at the Social Security Bureau one month before reaching the statutory retirement age (the month when the deferred insured has paid the full amount). When going through the retirement formalities, the insured shall submit the following materials: (1) application form for retirees (sealed by the unit or neighborhood committee in duplicate) (2) one-inch color photo of himself (3) copy of ID card.

Legal basis: Article 58 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law. The employing unit shall handle social insurance registration for 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.

Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration.

The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
