Health insurance for Erasmus, Exchange, and Special Students

To apply for a Student Residence Permit, the Republic of Turkey requires that international students prove that they have health insurance for the duration of their stay in Turkey.

• Please note:  This is a government requirement. Boğaziçi University, as a public university, has no separate requirement for health insurance from international students.

The Office of International Relations can help you with the preparation of this and other documents for the application.

Insurance Types

1. Public insurance for EU students whose countries have public insurance agreement with Turkey
2. Private health insurance policy, purchased in Turkey
