Hey there! Let's unravel the mysteries of Social Security and Health Insurance numbers in Germany:
Social Security Number
Known as Sozialversicherungsnummer, Versicherungsnummer, or RNVR.
Also called a social insurance number.
Find it on your social security card, an old pay slip (SV number), or your health insurance membership certificate.
Call German Pension Insurance (0800 / 1000 4800) to get your number.
If Flink is your first gig in Germany, you'll get it after signing your contract. For now, write 11MYFIRSTJOB in the number section. You'll receive your Social Security Number by mail later.
You can also find your Social Security number on an old pay slip (SV number)
Health Insurance Number
It's called Versicherungsnummer, different from your social security number.
If it's your first time working or being insured in Germany, choose your statutory health insurance provider. We recommend the Techniker Krankenkasse.
Even if we register you, make sure to register yourself with the health insurance company. After a few weeks, you'll get a membership certificate, an insurance card, and your national insurance number.
That's the lowdown on Social Security and Health Insurance numbers in Germany! If you have questions or need more info, we've got your back. Stay insured and secure! đĄď¸đŠđŞâ¨
