Do you still need travel insurance when travelling to Europe if you have a GHIC?
Travelling safely is more important than ever. As we all know, the unexpected can happen even on holiday. So, to avoid any emergency medical claims, you’ll need comprehensive travel insurance as you cannot rely solely on your Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC). This is because a GHIC card does not provide cover for all circumstances.
Once your EHIC card has expired, you can request the GHIC card as a replacement. To do so, visit the official website.
