About this service

A health insurance policy belongs to both the permit file and the visa file, but the requirements differ: a visa needs coverage of at least EUR 30,000, while a permit needs a policy that covers its whole term — including the shift in dates during the review.

Who it is for

  • Foreigners applying for a residence permit
  • Visa applicants, where the coverage requirement differs
  • Anyone who needs cover for the time they are here

What documents are needed

  • Passport
  • The term the permit or visa is being issued for
  • Address in Ukraine

What it gives you

  • A policy that is accepted in the procedure it was taken out for
  • A term with a margin: the policy will not expire before your permit does
  • The details in the policy match the passport — one common reason for a file being returned removed
  • Issued in a day

Frequently asked questions

Why not insure for exactly one year?+

Because while the Migration Service reviews the application, the dates of the future permit shift and the policy stops covering its full term. We have seen a refusal for exactly that, so we always build in a margin.

What coverage does a visa need?+

At least EUR 30,000. For a multiple-entry visa the policy for the first trip is checked.

Will any insurer do?+

No. We work only with those whose policies authorities accept without argument — faster than reissuing after a refusal.

Will a policy bought abroad do?+

Sometimes, but the requirements for cover and for the document itself differ between a visa and a permit. Send us the policy and we will check whether it will be accepted before you file.

What happens if the policy expires before the permit does?+

It is a ground for refusal, and we have run into exactly that. Which is why we build a margin into the term to cover the time the application is under review.

How much does the policy itself cost?+

The premium is an expense: it depends on the term and the cover and is not part of our fee. We name the exact amount once the term is known.
