Erasmus Insurance: Common Questions
How can I prove to my university that I’m insured?
After purchasing your Student Travel Insurance, you’ll immediately receive a confirmation email with all the required documents:

- Payment receipt
These documents are valid proof of insurance for Erasmus programs and internships.

- They will recommend doctors in your area and explain how to proceed
This ensures you receive medical care without unnecessary stress or upfront payments.
