What does social insurance registration mean?

Social insurance registration refers to the act that units that should pay social insurance premiums in accordance with the Interim Regulations on the Collection and Payment of Social Insurance Fees register in accordance with the procedures of the Interim Measures for the Administration of Social Insurance Registration and obtain social insurance registration certificates.

Social insurance registration is the premise and foundation of social insurance premium collection, and it is also the foundation of the whole social insurance system. The social insurance agency of the administrative department of labor security at or above the county level is responsible for social insurance registration.

Payment units participating in social insurance registration must, in accordance with the provisions of the Interim Measures for the Administration of Social Insurance Registration, go to the county social insurance agency where the industrial and commercial enterprise license is registered or where the organs, institutions and social organizations are located to handle social insurance registration. The payer who has participated in the system needs to go through the social insurance registration formalities at the social insurance agency of the city or county that currently pays the basic old-age insurance premium. The payer who originally implemented the basic old-age insurance industry as a whole needs to go to the municipal social insurance agency to reissue the social insurance registration.
