You will be notified within 6 to 8 weeks. There are 3 options.
We approve your application
You will receive a document S1/form 121. This allows you (and your
family members) to register with the health insurance fund in your country of residence. Your country of residence will cover your healthcare costs with the Netherlands. You will have to pay a
treaty contribution to the CAK. This amount is deducted monthly from your pension or benefit.
Please note: In some countries we send the document S1/form 121 directly to the health insurance fund in your country of residence. We will inform you if this is the case.
Tip
If the effective date of your pension and/or relocation is in the past, you are usually also insured retroactively. You will then pay a treaty contribution from that date.
We need additional information from you
We may need additional information to assess your application. We will send you a letter containing the questions we still have.
We reject your application
You are not entitled to health insurance through the CAK. The letter you will receive from us will tell you why. Do you not agree with the rejection? Then you can always
object.
