Étudiants, Chercheurs

Yes – and you will as soon as you register at a French higher education institution. France's public health-care system – Sécurité Sociale in French – is one of the best in the world. It covers all or part of your health-care costs once you are in the system. Students under the age of 28 are automatically covered by the national health-care system when they register with an approved educational institution.

Students who are 28 years of age or, are older must obtain individual coverage. Please see follow the link:
