I have private health insurance. How do I arrange for the digital insurance confirmation?

If your private health insurance’s coverage is equivalent to that of a German statutory health insurance, it will be accepted as student insurance. Since it can be difficult to compare the terms and conditions of private and statutory insurance, the statutory health insurance providers in Germany are obliged to check whether your private insurance is sufficient for study purposes. You must thus send the English- or German-language general terms and conditions of your private insurance to a statutory health insurance provider of your choice. In addition, you usually have to complete an application form. For example, Techniker Krankenkasse has an online form.
