Health insurance in the
Czech Republic for foreigners

Who is this insurance for?

Insurance for all types of stay.
We select medical insurance according to your purpose of stay in the Czech Republic - so the policy is accepted by the consulate or the Ministry of Interior, and so you can actually get help when you need medical care.

Comprehensive medical insurance for students of language courses, secondary schools, and universities. Covers doctor visits, treatment of illnesses and injuries, hospitalization, medicines, and preventive checkups. Required for extending a student visa/residence permit.

Comprehensive medical insurance for long-term stay (family reunification, partner residence, etc.). We select a policy for each family member and explain how to use it and what to do in emergencies.

Pregnancy & childbirth insurance: gynecologist visits, tests, ultrasounds, examinations, treatment of complications, and childbirth in the Czech Republic. We help choose a policy accepted by the Ministry of Interior and clinics, and we support you in complex cases.

Comprehensive commercial insurance for entrepreneurs (long-term business residence). We help choose an option accepted by the Ministry of Interior and that actually protects you when visiting a doctor. We arrange coverage for the full period of stay.

WHAT DO WE DO FOR YOU?

WHY GET INSURANCE
WITH CENTR1?

How we help with insurance:

Why foreigners arrange insurance through our center:

We don’t just “issue a policy.” We take on the difficult part: choosing the right insurer for your situation and supporting you if something actually happens and you need treatment or reimbursement.

We assess your situation - purpose of stay, visa type, children, pregnancy, chronic conditions, long-term plans - and choose the right options for you (not a template).
We compare several policies and explain the differences in plain language - where coverage is better, where there are hidden pitfalls, and which limits/exclusions matter specifically in your case.
We set up the policy so the consulate and the Ministry of Interior accept it - we check the dates, coverage amount, and contract wording so it fits for visa applications and residence permits.
We help you when you need a doctor or in an insurance case - where to go, what documents to bring, how to call the assistance service, and how to file a claim with the insurer.
