Do I need to activate the reissued social security card?

First, the basic process of completing the social security card

When the social security card is lost or damaged, the cardholder needs to go to the social security card service center or the designated bank outlet to reissue it. In the process of reissue, cardholders need to provide valid identity documents and fill in relevant application forms. After verification, the social security card service center or bank will make a new social security card and notify the cardholder to collect it.

Second, the new social security card activation method

After receiving a new social security card, the cardholder needs to activate it according to relevant regulations. Activation methods usually include the following:

1. Online activation: Cardholders can activate online through social security card service center official website or mobile phone APP. In this process, the cardholder needs to input the relevant information of the new card, such as card number, name, ID number, etc. , and authentication. After verification, the new card can be activated.

2. Telephone activation: the cardholder can also call the customer service phone of the social security card service center and activate according to the voice prompt. Similarly, the cardholder needs to provide information about the new card and verify its identity.

3. Network activation: Social security card service centers or bank outlets in some areas provide on-site activation services. Cardholders can bring new cards and valid identity documents to designated outlets and complete the activation operation with the assistance of staff.

Three. Precautions after activation

After the new social security card is activated, cardholders should pay attention to the following points:

1. Confirm card functions: After activation, the cardholder should check whether the functions of the new social security card are normal, such as medical insurance settlement and pension collection.

2. Protect personal information: Cardholders should properly keep the new social security card and personal information to avoid disclosure or misappropriation.

3. Update information in time: If the cardholder's personal information changes (such as address, telephone number, etc.). ), he should go to the social security card service center or the bank to update it in time.

To sum up:

The reissued social security card needs to be activated to ensure the normal use of the new card. Cardholders can activate online, by phone or through outlets. After activation, they should pay attention to confirm the card function, protect personal information and update information in time.
