EU CITIZEN? Check Rules for EU citizens.

NON-EU CITIZEN?

When you will apply for a Student Visa, Italian Embassies and Consulates accept SISSA letter stating that you will underwrite a health insurance upon your arrival in Italy.

Payment of the insurance

Being a non EU/EEA citizen, in order to apply for the Permit of stay and to obtain a basic health assistance, you have to underwrite either a private insurance or to register and pay for the National Health System (SISSA will refund both private or National health insureance). SISSA suggests and supports you with the second option.

Register with the Italian SSN

The cost for registration to the National (Regional) Health Care system (SSN), is € 700,00 per calendar year (the registration expires on December 31st of each year) You will be assigned a General Practicioner. Some medicines and all exams are subject to the payment of a fee (maximum for exams is 36,15 Euros).

Paying via F24 form

To be updated

Please refer to the Students' Secretariat for the payment of the health insurance.

Required documents

You have to submit the following documents to the Students' Secretariat:

Scheda di iscrizione volontaria al Sistema sanitario nazionale (Form for voluntary registration to the SSN) filled in and signed. Here's the instruction to fill it in.

Permit of stay OR expired permit + the receipt issued by the Post office when you submitted your permit of stay documents (called "assicurata" receipt). Assicurata receipt must to be less-than-6-months-old.

Passport

Original of the receipt of the payment

We will forward the documents to the proper Distretto!

Please remember that you must pay the registration fee before you send us these documents.

The SSN card covers the same period of your permit of stay.


How to get the refund

Once you are registered into the SSN, you can apply for the refund, which is provided by SISSA. In particular you have to visit this webpage, login using SISSA credentials by clicking on the yellow button, and fill in the online form. The form is then automatically sent to the Students' Secretariat and to protocollo@sissa.it.


Additional information about the Italian Health Care System can be found at the Welcome Office Trieste webpage.

REMEMBER to check the deadline of your health card in order to renew it when needed. It can happen 2 or more times a year.
