Proof of compulsory medical travel insurance according to EU conditions
Since June 1, 2004, it is mandatory in all Schengen countries to take out travel medical insurance before applying for a Schengen visa.
The visa applicant must have a medical travel insurance to cover any expenses for transport home for medical reasons (repatriation), urgent medical care and emergency hospital treatment. The insurance to be taken out must meet the following conditions:
– The insurance is valid for the entire Schengen area.
– Have a minimum cover of € 30.000
– Be valid for the entire duration of the intended stay.
Someone in the Netherlands may take out the insurance for the foreign guest. The original policy must then be sent to the visa applicant.
