Is social security card universal in China?

Legal analysis: Social security cards can't be used nationwide at present, because the social security policies of different cities are slightly different, and there is no national overall planning at present. At present, buying a car and a house in many cities is also closely related to social security. Generally, where to participate in insurance, you can only enjoy treatment locally, such as receiving pension and medical reimbursement, and you can only settle it locally. When using medical insurance, some cities can settle accounts in different places, but only in designated hospitals.

Legal basis: Article 10 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) * * * Employees shall participate in the basic old-age insurance, and both employers and employees shall pay the basic old-age insurance premium. Individual industrial and commercial households without employees, part-time employees who have not participated in the basic old-age insurance in the employer and other flexible employees can participate in the basic old-age insurance, and individuals pay the basic old-age insurance premium. The measures for the endowment insurance of civil servants and staff managed by reference to the Civil Service Law shall be formulated by the State Council.
