Here you'll find news articles that concern people who live abroad and receive a Dutch pension or Dutch benefits.
Here you'll find general news about the CAK.
A VOZD (voluntary agreement for healthcare cost coverage) is a scheme that is available to those who have to (re)pay healthcare costs because they were uninsured for a certain period of time.
From 2017 to 2019 the country of residence factor set for Germany was too high. Are you a treaty-entitled person and did you live in Germany during that period? Then the amount of the healthcare contribution that was deducted or that you paid was too high.
Do you have an employer based in the Netherlands, but do you live across the border and do you telework a lot from your country of residence? This can have consequences for your health insurance and that of your co-insured family members.
Are you going on holiday soon? Or are you travelling within Europe for another reason? Don't forget to bring your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC).
The EHIC from the CAK is for people who are insured through the CAK and live in the EU/EEA, the United Kingdom or Switzerland.
