Travel Insurance for Slovenia - Information and recommended travel insurance for Slovenia

Travel insurance

EU citizens on public-health insurance schemes should note that they’re generally covered by reciprocal arrangements in Slovenia. They should, however, carry their European Health Insurance Card. In the UK, application forms for such cards are available from any branch of the Department of Health (www.dh.gov.uk) In addition, citizens of certain other countries, including Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia and Romania, are guaranteed emergency medical assistance or subsequent treatment provided they submit the appropriate documentation. Citizens of other countries should check with their Ministry of Health or equivalent before setting out. Everyone else is entitled to emergency medical treatment in Slovenia, but they must pay for it. Check the website of the Health Insurance Institute of Slovenia (www.zzzs.si) for more information.

If you do need health insurance while travelling, we strongly advise you to consider a policy that covers you for the worst possible scenario, such as an accident requiring an ambulance or an emergency flight home.
