Health insurance for enrolment

The Registrar's Office requires proof of health insurance for enrolment in electronic form only.

You can request a German statutory health insurance company for the health insurance certificate to be sent to the UR. Please contact your statutory health insurance company.

If you have taken out private student health insurance, you must still apply for electronic notification from a statutory health insurance fund.

The submission of paper certificate (insurance card, membership certificate, etc.) is no longer acceptet for enrolment (since 01.01.2022).
