New social security cards will be restricted if not activated within 6 months of receiving the card.

Social security cardholders should activate their social security cards within six months of receiving their cards, during which time the card can still be used normally, and the original card will automatically be invalidated after activation, and if it is not activated after the deadline, the original card will be restricted from use.

For those who have overstayed, the insured person should go to the corresponding bank as soon as possible with a valid ID document and social security card to activate the social security card, and after activating the social security card, the balance of the medical insurance account will be transferred to the social security card automatically, and the medical insurance account will be restored to the normal state.

The list of units that have had their cards deactivated can be found in the Social Security Card section of the Human Resources and Social Security website. The Medicare account will return to its normal state after activation, and the new social security card can be used without loss or other impact.

The period of activation of the new social security card is within six months counting from the date when the insured person or the insured unit receives the card from the social security card handling window.
