3. Can I pay social insurance again if I have withdrawn it once?

According to Clause 1, Article 2 of the Law on Social Insurance 2014, employees who are Vietnamese citizens are subject to compulsory social insurance, including:

- People working under indefinite-term labor contracts, fixed-term labor contracts, seasonal labor contracts or labor contracts for a specific job with a term from 3 months to less than 12 months, including labor contracts signed between the employer and the legal representative of a person under 15 years old according to the provisions of labor law;

- Employees working under labor contracts with a term from 01 month to less than 03 months;

- Cadres, civil servants, public employees;

- Defense workers, police workers, people working in other key organizations;

- Officers, professional soldiers of the people's army, professional officers, non-commissioned officers, officers, technical non-commissioned officers of the people's police, and people working in cryptography receive salaries like military soldiers.

- Non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the people's army; non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the people's police serving for a limited period of time; military, police and cryptographic students currently studying are entitled to living expenses;

- People working abroad under contracts as prescribed in the Law on Vietnamese Workers Working Abroad under Contracts;

- Business managers and cooperative managers receive salaries;

- Non-professional workers in communes, wards and towns.

Thus, in case the employee signs a labor contract with the company, he/she will be subject to compulsory social participation. At that time, the employee has the right to participate in social insurance at the new company even though he/she previously participated in social insurance and withdrew social insurance once.

In this case, you need to declare to the company to request the employer to participate in social insurance for you. If the social insurance book number has not been deleted, provide the old social insurance book and continue to pay social insurance. If the social insurance book number has been deleted, a new social insurance book will be issued.
