How do self-employed people buy social security

Legal analysis: Generally speaking, there are two options for self-employed individuals to pay social security. One is to pay social security for yourself. This is to participate in residents' medical insurance and residents' old-age insurance as an individual, and the payment method and cost are the same as those of urban and rural residents. Another way is to pay social security as a self-employed person. In this case, you need to pay for the employees you hire and have the organization code, otherwise you can't pay. At present, most self-employed people have no organization code and can only pay social security as residents.

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.
