What if the company buys social security and leaves?

If an employee resigns, the enterprise shall handle the transfer formalities of social insurance relationship for the employee according to the regulations.

If you have left your job, your old company will not continue to pay social security for you. Your old company will go to the Social Security Bureau to go through the formalities of downsizing, so that your social security will be automatically closed.

When you go abroad, you have to transfer social security to other places. You only need to open a "payment voucher" from the social security department of the original place of payment, bring it to the new place and new unit, and the rest will be handled by the unit.

If you transfer to a new local company, you only need to tell the new company your social security number, and the company can handle the social security renewal procedures for you (if you don't know your social security number and don't want to ask the original company, just ask the social security department with your ID card).

If you don't have a company after leaving your job and want to pay social security, you can go to the Social Security Bureau to pay it yourself.
