Is it legal to pay personal social security online?

Legal analysis: when handling social security payment online, the payment company will not sign a labor contract with the demander, but requires a service agreement, clearly emphasizing that there is no labor relationship between the two parties. Relevant legal persons said that employees must sign labor contracts with employers and establish labor relations before they can pay social insurance through their units. The two sides did not establish a labor contract relationship, but paid social security through affiliated agencies, which is illegal and not allowed by the policy.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Social Insurance Law.

Article 60 The employing unit shall declare on its own and pay social insurance premiums in full and on time. Except for legal reasons such as force majeure, the payment shall not be postponed or reduced. The social insurance premiums that employees should pay shall be withheld and remitted by the employer, and the employer shall inform me of the details of paying social insurance premiums on a monthly basis. Individual industrial and commercial households without employees, part-time employees who have not participated in social insurance in the employing units and other flexible employees can pay social insurance premiums directly to the social insurance premium collection agencies.

Sixty-first social insurance fee collection agencies shall collect social insurance premiums in full and on time according to law, and regularly inform employers and individuals of the payment situation.
