Health insurance for foreigners resided in Germany? |
Travel Info I'm a Singapore citizen at age 43, and I'm planning to go to Germany this coming August to take up a German language course for 6 months or so. As I was told that health insurance is mandatory in Germany, I'm wondering how I can get my health insurance covered during my stay in Germany. Can any of you shed some light on this for me? Thanks very much in advance. Travel Tips DKV Versicherungsgruppe (0180-358222 telephone from within Germany) offers an "auslander versicherung" for non-residents. The insurance can only cover you for a maximum of 4 years total (even if there is a break in insurance). The rates are good, service is good, and not complicated to use. Others Please read this: http://www.aok-bv.de/service_eng/sociali... (in English). And also contact the German Embassy in Singapore as well for more information. Yes, a health insurance is mandatory in this country, for every citizen. Greetings from Germany... I had private health insurance through AXA Colonia and was very happy with it. I paid about 250 euros a month and was fully covered - for EVERYTHING. I am sure you can get something cheaper though. You are just coming here and want to learn German Language and staying for 6 months. So because you are not employed and have any health insurance. This mean you need to get some health insurance and pay that by your own. Allianz has something like that too. Another people answer your question also and they give you some another insurance names. Also ask the local German embassy for this question, perhaps they tell you more. Have fun in Germany, I know you like that place. |
