Is the social security payment institution legal?

Social security payment institutions are legal in some cases, but not in all cases. The situation is as follows:

1. In principle, it is illegal for an individual to find a social security agency to attach his social security to the past, and there is no labor relationship between the two parties.

2. It is legal for a company or individual to go to a social security agency to handle remittance business, and the agency has relevant licenses such as human resources service license.

The legitimacy of social security payment institutions depends on whether they have corresponding qualifications and licenses.

In most cases, social security agencies are legal, because they usually hold valid human resources service licenses and other related licenses, and will abide by national and local laws and regulations. These institutions usually provide a series of social security agency services, including social security payment and social security agency, to meet the needs of customers.

However, it may be illegal if the social security agency does not hold the corresponding license or violates the national and local laws and regulations.

Therefore, when choosing social security payment institutions, we must choose carefully to ensure their legitimacy and compliance.

In addition, it should be noted that if individuals want to attach their social security to an agency, they need to ensure that the agency is legal and there is no any form of labor relationship between the two parties. If there is a labor relationship, then the agency can't pay social security for individuals, because it violates national and local laws and regulations.

To sum up, when choosing a social security payment institution, you need to choose carefully to ensure its legitimacy and compliance. If you are not sure whether it is legal, you can consult the local social security department or relevant departments.
