If I want to change my job and go to another city, can I open a new account and pay social security?

1. The social security paid at the place where the account is located does not need to be transferred.

If you pay social security in a certain place for 10 years and reach the legal retirement age in the future, and want to settle there for a long time, you can move the social security paid by household registration to the place where you have paid social security 10 years to apply for retirement and enjoy the local retirement benefits.

Those who have worked in other places and have paid social security for less than 10 years can only move back to their hukou to retire at the legal retirement age.

2. If you are insured and pay social security in different areas, it is possible to re-apply for a social security account.

Those who leave their domicile to work in other places can apply for a new social security account and pay social security in their new work units. If you leave your work unit in the future, you can move the paid social security back to the social security account of your household registration and merge it, without affecting your accumulated payment period.
