Must the place of payment of social security and the place of work be the same

If the person concerned is a corporate employee, the place of payment of social security should be filled in the company's registered office, which has nothing to do with the individual's place of work and hukou. If the person is a personal payment, then the social security payment place should choose to pay the hukou location. The employer should apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for its employees within thirty days from the date of employment.

Legal basis: Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law of the People's Republic of China

The employer should apply for social insurance registration with the social insurance agency for its employees within 30 days from the date of employment. If the employer fails to register for social insurance, the social insurance administration organization shall approve the social insurance premiums to be paid by the employer.

Individual entrepreneurs without employees who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance with their employers, and other flexibly employed persons shall apply for social insurance registration with the social insurance administrative organization. The state establishes a nationally unified individual social security number.

The individual social security number is a citizen's identity number.
