1 European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)
The European Health Insurance Card is a free card valid in the 27 member states of the European Union as well as in Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. Guests from these countries carrying a valid European Health Insurance Card are entitled to free healthcare services (including treatment for COVID-19) in public healthcare facilities in the country they are staying in at the time.
Who can get the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)?
Anyone who regularly pays for health insurance in their home country either within the European Union or in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, or Switzerland can get the European Health Insurance Card. Every family member travelling must have their own card. Persons from outside the EU who are legally resident in the EU and covered by the state social security system can also be issued the card. The expiry date on the card differs from country to country. If you have applied for the card just before your trip but the card cannot be issued due to the short deadline, you are entitled to a certificate that affords you the same rights as the card during your trip.
Guests from the United Kingdom carrying the Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) are entitled to the same medical treatment and healthcare as all other guests from the European Union with the European Health Insurance Card.
