Do I need a temporary residence permit to apply for social security?

Legal analysis: You don't need a temporary residence permit to apply for social security, but you need to bring your ID card, household registration book, application form (citizens with collective household registration need to bring the household registration certificate issued by the local police station or police station) and two one-inch photos with a white background.

Legal basis: Article 72 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) establishes social insurance institutions in overall planning areas. According to the needs of the work, with the approval of the local social insurance administrative department and the organization management organ, the social insurance agency may set up branches and service outlets in this overall planning area.

The personnel expenses of social insurance agencies and the basic operating expenses and management expenses incurred in handling social insurance shall be guaranteed by the finance at the same level in accordance with state regulations.
