Health insurance required for activation IEC Working Holiday Work Permit

[samanta60]

Hi

Can anyone share what options are there for health insurance which is required before activating IEC Working Holiday Work Permit?
How much is the cost for that?

Guess depends on your home country, if UK then many people use Truetraveller who do 2 year policies that cost bewteen 450 and 800 pounds depending on cover required. To clarify this is travel insurance not health insurance so is designed for emergencies not regular health conditions

But like most companies the downside is you need to be a UK resident for UK based insurance companies although thos company does support applications if already travelling.

If not UK then sorry cannot suggest.

Thanks very much for the reply. Now I know that what I need is travel insurance.

I am from Germany. Does anyone on IEC from Germany have experience with this kind of insurance?
