Situation for those arrived before 31/12/2020

If you moved to France before the end of the transition period set on December 31, 2020, your health insurance coverage and the conditions under which you are insured do not change for the duration of your studies. You must present the new "Brexit" European health insurance card (CEAM or EHIC) with the country code FR.

We advise you to apply for French national health insurance through: https://etudiant-etranger.ameli.fr/#/

To receive reimbursement for your health care expenses at the highest possible rate, you can take out supplementary health care coverage or coverage from a mutual fund ("mutuelle").
