Overview of health insurers abroad
In this summary, you will find the designated health insurance provider or authority for each country. Register with them using the document you receive from us (or, if you are a cross-border worker, from your Dutch health insurer).
Tip
Do you live in Cabo Verde, North Macedonia, Tunisia or the United Kingdom? Then you will not receive a document from us. We will notify the designated authority about you ourselves. You will then receive a call from them to register.
