Chancenkarte health insurance should match your visa purpose and travel dates. The Germany Opportunity Card, also searched for as “Chancenkarte Deutschland,” allows eligible non-EU nationals to look for work in Germany.
Opportunity Card Germany: what insurance is required?
For Chancenkarte applicants, Germany’s Federal Foreign Office requires private health insurance valid for the entire visa period. It must cover outpatient and inpatient treatment beyond emergencies. Also confirm adequate protection for incidents connected with permitted employment.
What does EDUCARE24 offer?
DR-WALTER specifically markets EDUCARE24 for jobseekers with an Opportunity Card. Its product page describes:
- An unlimited overall medical sum insured, subject to policy terms and exclusions.
- Cover for Germany and other Schengen countries.
- Policy durations of up to four years.
- Insurance confirmation sent immediately by email after online purchase.
How much does Chancenkarte health insurance cost?
Published EDUCARE24 S premiums start at €34.50 per month for people aged up to 39 during the first 18 months. That equals €414 for 12 months at this rate.
EDUCARE24 S provides health-only cover. Other packages add benefits such as accident and private liability insurance. Prices depend on age, package and duration, with higher rates from month 19.
