The last amendment to the Act on the Residence of Foreign Nationals on the territory of the Czech Republic has had an impact upon the system of coverage of medical expenses incurred by the Government scholarship-holders.

Prior to the granting of a visa for a stay exceeding 90 days, the applicant is obliged to submit the respective certificate of travel medical insurance issued by an insurance company authorised to provide such insurance on the territory of the Czech Republic.

The Government scholarship-holders applying for a prolongation of their residence permit validity, have to contract and cover the respective medical insurance themselves.

The list of insurance companies currently authorised to provide such medical insurance is available at:
