Insurances for incoming students

Protection and safety of participants involved in the Erasmus+ projects are important principles of the Erasmus+ Programme. All persons participating in this new Programme must be insured against the risks linked to their participation in these activities.

Health insurance (compulsory in Belgium)

EU inhabitants: European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) is compulsory.
The holder of a EHIC has the right to take the medical care during his/her stay in Belgium at the same conditions as provided by the Belgian legislation, but he/she can only get partial reimbursement for the medical care that is necessary during his/her stay, taking the nature of the medical care into account as well as the duration of the stay.

Non-EU inhabitants: a copy of your private health insurance is necessary.

Travel insurance (including damage or loss of luggage)

You should enrol in your own travel plan. Proof of enrolment is required.

Repatriation insurance
