Your advantages with Provisit Student TK
Insurances for foreign guests have to meet many requirements. Some of the specifications which need to be given attention to are the regulations of the European Commission, the “Freizügigkeitsverordnung/EG” and Germany’s right of residence. Provisit Student TK meets the regulatory requirements in several ways.
1. For your entry: The statutory or private comprehensive health insurance for students does not begin until the start of studies. However, many students from abroad arrive a few days before the start of their studies and need health insurance from the time they enter the country until they enroll. We will provide you with free insurance for that time period.
2. For your studies: Students need a statutory or private comprehensive health insurance. Provisit Student TK includes membership in Techniker Krankenkasse, which corresponds in scope to the protection of the statutory health insurance and the requirements of the immigration authorities.
3. For the time after your studies: With Provisit Student TK, you enjoy the same privileges as German citizens. You automatically remain insured in the German social security system and are treated in the same way as any German national.
Provisit Student TK is a health insurance, which you can extend to provide comprehensive coverage by adding the ‘Protect Standard’ or ‘Complete’ package. Accident, liability, baggage and assistance insurance protect you in your free time, but also during your studies.
Most German health insurance policies can only be purchased with a German bank account and an address in Germany. That's not the case with Provisit Student TK. You can apply for Provisit Student TK from abroad. Insurance starts from the date of entry. Simply submit any missing data after your arrival in Germany.
Many traveling students require a visa for their stay in Germany and therefore proof of having German health insurance. With Provisit Student, TK you will receive proof of insurance immediately after submitting the online application. The insurance solution is accepted at all consulates, embassies and immigration authorities.
Provisit Student TK does not only cover your stay in Germany but also has you covered during trips to all over Europe.
