EU STUDENTS
Students from European Union countries, the European Economic Area &
Switzerland

CASE A
If you stay in Italy temporarily and you need to access a general practictioner
the emergency room or necessary health services at an hospital, it is sufficient
to show your valid EU ID and the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC /
TEAM) of the State of origin.

CASE B
If you live in Italy for over 3 months and you wish to access additional health
services (e.g. be assigned with a general practitioner ad get discounted prices
for medicines and therapies) you should better register with the National
Health Service.
If you are moving from European Union countries, the European Economic
Area and from Switzerland you can temporarily transfer your health coverage
to take advantage of Italian public healthcare as an Italian citizen, by obtaining
S1 Form from your country of origin. If you don't have the S1 form with you,
you are still eligible to subscribe for a Voluntary Registration by paying a fee.    5

local authority in the country of origin for S2 form - Authorization to obtain planned treatment abroad.
