The social security card I used to work in Beijing was a magnetic stripe card. Now I work in Shanghai. I want to change it to a chip card. Where should I go to operate?

There is a charge for changing a magnetic stripe card into a chip card, which varies according to different banks.

The method of replacing chip card with bank card;

The first type: it is "card number change"

That is, the magnetic stripe card is directly replaced by a chip card, and the card number remains unchanged, but it takes 18 to two weeks to get it. Because magnetic stripe card and chip card are two systems, only a few big banks can "change their card numbers" at present, not all bank cards can. For example, CCB can only guarantee the number of cards at the beginning of 622700, and Bank of Communications can only guarantee the number of savings cards with 19 digits.

The second type: it is "changing cards and numbers"

The card number has been changed, but the account information of the old card will be entered into the new card. Usually you can get the card on the spot, but it's almost the same as a new card.

The third type: it is a new card.

Now the new ones are generally chip cards, and the charging standards of banks are different.
