In the case of students who require a visa it is necessary to obtain medical insurance which is sufficient to cover any medical emergencies, hospital care and doctors’ services while in Ireland.

 

To be acceptable to the immigration authorities it is necessary that the extent of cover and the benefits must be clearly stated in your original insurance documents.

The school can organise medical insurance cover that meets immigration authorities’ requirements.
