Finland student and researcher health insurance - Welcome
Students and researchers of non-EU/EEA countries arriving in Finland for studies or student exchange programs after and including 1 September 2007 are required to have health insurance. This is compulsory if the studies or student exchange lasts for more than three months.
Plan limted to EUR 30'000
- Where the duration of the studies is two years or more, a student will usually have a home municipality in Finland and is therefore entitled to municipal health care services. In such cases, it is sufficient for the insurance to primarily cover the cost of medicines (in practice the cover extends to doctor’s fees and costs of treatment and examination), up to 30,000 euros (cost level in 2007).
Plan unlimited (including 100'000 for Finland)
- For studies of less than two years in duration, a student must have private insurance which primarily covers the costs of medical treatment up to 100,000 euros (cost level in 2007)
The Swisscare student plan Finland is unlimited and covers both requirements.
