MARSH SIP Health Insurance

Valentin · Post by **Valentin** » Sun May 17, 2015 10:44 am

Hi, did anyone here apply for the MARSH SIP health insurance?

They say that they will NOT mail any documents to you, but how exactly am I going to get my insurance card/certificate? Do I have to go there in Belgium to get it or something?
I sent them two emails but they won't respond, and their telephone number is for emergencies only.

Can anyone help at all? Anyone who took this insurance. Can you just tell me what they sent you by email?

I went through their FAQs and that section, but if I print the document, I don't think it will be considered an original document. Is it going to have some kind of digital signature or something? I sent them a dozen emails to several of their addresses and they just don't want to respond.

I need someone who purchased their insurance to tell me what kind of document it is.

Better call their emergency number and inquire.

Well MARSH SIP was recommended by more than one entity for people who will be studying in Finland. I was just about to go with SwissCare, but phew, they finally responded after sending like 12 emails to the individual people who work there.

They said I can just print it and it will be enough.

Thanks for those who tried to help.

Hey guys,
I've got admit for master's program from one of the universities in Finland & wondering whether do I've to buy 2 years insurance or can I buy insurance for this one year & renew it next year. Its mentioned in Finnish Immigration website that Insurance should cover the duration of your study period, so I'm confused whether to buy it for one year & renew later or should I buy it for 2 years before applying for my residence permit.

Appreciate your response.

PS. I am a Non-EU citizen.

MARSH Insurance can only be purchased for one year, you have to buy a new Insurance from them next year.

MARSH SIP is the only insurance that is pre-approved by Migri and can be taken by non-eu applicants as well.
No need for 'original' documents, print outs are ok.

Is this means if we apply for family reunification, the RP process will gone faster?
