Travel Smart: How the UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) keeps you safe abroad


Planning a trip to Europe? Don't forget your UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) – your passport to state-funded healthcare—when you travel.

After Brexit, the GHIC replaced the EHIC, ensuring that travelers to the UK still enjoy access to emergency medical treatment in EU countries, Switzerland and countries with reciprocal agreements.

What's included:

GHIC lets you get medical care for unexpected illnesses, accidents or chronic conditions in public hospitals abroad—usually free or at low cost.

How to Apply:

Apply for free through the NHS website by providing your basic details. Cards arrive in about two weeks—just in time for your next holiday.

Pro Tip:

Combine your GHIC with travel insurance to cover personal care, repatriation, or lost items. GHIC protects your health, travel insurance protects everything else.

In short:

GHIC = peace of mind + healthcare access anywhere in Europe.
