  • Health insurance

    For enrolment, you must provide proof of an insurance certificate from a german statutory health insurance fund. We require the digital notification (so-called M10 notification).

    - If you are not insured in Germany: Please contact any statutory health insurance provider in Germany with your insurance documents. Please inform the health insurance provider that you would like to enrol at TH Aschaffenburg. This health insurance provider will then send us a digital notification.
     
    -    If you have statutory health insurance in Germany (compulsory, voluntary or family insurance), please contact your health insurance company and apply for an insurance certificate. This will then be sent to us automatically for enrolment (electronic registration procedure).

    -    Privately in Germany insured persons must obtain a certificate of exemption from compulsory health insurance from a statutory health insurance fund. The application for exemption must be submitted to the statutory health insurance fund with which you were last insured, otherwise to one of the health insurance funds that would be responsible or could be chosen if you were subject to compulsory insurance. The latter will then digitally notify us of your exemption from compulsory health insurance. Confirmations of the existence of insurance by private health insurance companies can unfortunately not be accepted. Please note that your decision in favour of private insurance is binding and that switching to a statutory health insurance fund is only possible in exceptional cases.

    You must inform the Student Affairs Office immediately of any change in health insurance during the duration of your studies and apply for an insurance certificate from the new health insurance company.

    Further information on health insurance for students can be obtained from the health insurance companies.
