Do I still need travel insurance with an EHIC card?
A European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) covers you for emergency medical care in the local health service of the EU country you’re visiting (not private hospitals). It means emergency care will be provided to you at a reduced cost or free, depending on which EU country you’re in.
For UK travellers, EHIC cards issued before the end of 2020 will be valid until their expiry date (on the front of your card). The EHIC was replaced by the GHIC (Global Health Insurance Card) in 2021. Visit the gov.uk website for the most up-to-date information on the EHIC and GHIC.
It’s important to be aware that EHIC and GHIC are not a replacement for European travel insurance. These cards may not be valid in every EU country, and there are restrictions on what it can be used for.
Europe travel insurance provides comprehensive medical cover for any unexpected bills, as well as providing cover for things like lost belongings and travel disruption.

What is ETIAS and how does it affect UK travellers?
ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorisation System. It’s a travel authorisation that is set to become mandatory from May 2025 for travellers entering Schengen Area countries. Travellers from over 60 countries worldwide will need one, including the UK, USA and Canada.
It’s a simple process to apply, and you’ll need to fill out an online form and pay a €7 fee. It’s effectively an added layer of security, with each traveller’s details compared against security databases like Interpol.
