What is expat health insurance?

Expats health insurance (sometimes referred to as “incoming insurance”) is an ideal solution for your first years in France. It provides affordable coverage that meets the legal requirements for obtaining your visa, temporary residence permit, or renewal. Designed for newcomers, it ensures you have access to medical care while you transition into the French healthcare system.

Advantages of expat health insurance

Visit private or public hospitals

You have a free choice of doctors, dentists, and hospitals recognized and accredited in France or your country of destination.

Simply remember that hospitals must be under permanent medical management and have sufficient diagnostic and therapeutic facilities.

Easily upgrade to private health insurance (mutuelle)

Moving to France means access to one of the best healthcare systems in the world. After just 3 months of residency, you can register with the French public health insurance system (sécurité sociale).


Feather makes this transition simple. Once you're affiliated with the system, you can cancel your expat health insurance directly from your account and switch to a complementary private plan (mutuelle) to cover what the public system doesn't.
