Health insurance for students from countries outside the EU/EEA
International students from non-EU/EEA countries staying in Norway for less than 3 months are responsible for making sure that they have valid health insurance. Please clarify with your insurance provider whether your coverage applies to Norway.
We strongly recommend a travel insurance in addition.
Health insurance for students from EU/EEA countries
You must bring a valid European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) with you from your home country.* This entitles you to medical care on the same conditions as the citizens of the EU/EEA country you are visiting.?
If you do not have a European Health Insurance Card, you must have private health insurance. We strongly recommend a travel insurance in addition.
* Exemption: Nordic citizens are entitled to medical care under the National Health Insurance Scheme (Folketrygden) without any insurance documentation.?
