Refunds usually arrive within 3 working days, depending on your bank.

Once accepted, many residents also get a mutuelle (complementary insurance) to help cover:

• The remaining 30% of medical costs

• Extras like dental, vision, and private hospital stays

Yes, if any of the following apply to you:

• You’ve recently moved to France and need your first health insurance plan
• You’re not employed yet or are self-employed
• You need quick and affordable coverage to apply for a visa or residence permit
• You’re renewing your visa and want coverage while waiting for your carte vitale
• You prefer to sign up entirely in English

Each family member needs their own individual policy.

To manage all policies in one place, use the same email address during signup.

Our insurance does not cover pre-existing conditions.

This means any illness, symptoms, or treatments that existed before your policy start date will not be reimbursed—you would need to pay for those costs out of pocket.

However, this has no impact on your visa eligibility. The insurance is still fully accepted for visa and residence permit applications.
