European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)
If you are a UK resident, you are entitled to medical treatment that becomes necessary, at reduced cost or sometimes free, when temporarily visiting a European Union country, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland.
However, to obtain treatment you will need to take a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) with you. To apply for a new card or renew your existing card visit the EHIC website.
Don't forget, EHIC cards require renewal - check the date on yours and visit the EHIC website to order a replacement before your card expires.
