Social security payment period:
1. There are five types of social insurance, so the payment period corresponding to different types of insurance is also different. In social security, maternity insurance, unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance are all indefinite. Basically, as long as you can always pay, you can always enjoy the protection, so you don't have to pay for many years.
2. For endowment insurance, at least 15 years is required. Only in this way can you enjoy your retirement pension. Of course, medical insurance also requires a payment period. For women, they can enjoy lifelong medical insurance benefits if they have paid for 20 years before retirement and 25 years before retirement.
