I am 53 years old, can I still buy social security?

Residents of this age group can also buy social insurance.

According to the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), when an individual reaches the statutory retirement age, he can receive a basic pension on a monthly basis if he has paid contributions for fifteen years. If the accumulated payment is less than fifteen years, you can choose to continue to pay until you meet the requirements, or transfer to the new rural social endowment insurance or urban residents' social endowment insurance and enjoy the corresponding pension insurance benefits.

For a 53-year-old woman, if she has not purchased social insurance before, it is usually impossible to participate in the insurance for the first time. However, there is no age limit if it is a non-first-time insured person. It should be noted that after starting to pay social security, you need to reach the statutory retirement age to enjoy the corresponding treatment. Generally speaking, the retirement age for women is 55 and that for men is 60.
