Why You Should Get Social Insurance in China

Social insurance for foreigners working in China can be a complicated thing to understand. It usually includes medical insurance, pension, unemployment, work injury insurance, and maternity insurance. While it's mandatory, many foreigners living and working in China don't actually pay it. In this video we explain the benefits of having it, what pension means for foreigners, how much you have to contribute every month, and more.

I was told I was paying taxes, but wasn’t told any of this (back in 2014)… it would have come in handy! Thanks for putting it out there now! :)

How to apply this social security insurance as foreigner employee? And where to apply ? Our employer didn’t say anything when we are doing contract.

In China, the retirement age for men is 60 and women is 55.

Great idea for making this channel. One question: We are a German Chinese couple and currently living in Germany. After our retirement we want to move to China. In case we want to stay in China how to solve the issue for the health insurance? Thank you n advance Nice regards

It depends on the type of visa you have. Currently, a social insurance is only available to those who have a work permit. However, there are many private health insurance services available nowadays.
