EHIC Card Sent to Old Address in France – What Can I Do?

Hello,

I am an international student studying in France. I ordered my European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) on June 12th through my Ameli account.

Hello,

I am an international student who studied in France. I recently moved to Germany for my internship.

On June 12th, after arriving in Germany, I ordered my European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) through my Ameli account. Since I needed the card urgently for my internship, I placed the order right away — but unfortunately, I mistakenly gave my old address in Le Mans (where I lived during my studies) as the delivery address.

Now, the landlord has informed me that my name is no longer on the mailbox, and he is not sure the letter will be delivered. He has spoken to the new tenant, but there’s still a chance that the letter may be lost or returned.

Since this document is very important for my internship, I would like to know:

1. Is there a way to track or confirm whether the EHIC has already been sent?

2. What can I do if the letter is not delivered or gets returned to Ameli?

3. Can I request a re-issue or have the card re-sent to a different address (such as a friend’s address in France)?

Thank you very much for your help and advice.

Hello Andrews,

First of all, once the card has been sent, it is not possible to track it.

If the card is not received, you will need to declare the loss via the ‘Mes démarches’ section of the ameli account.

The EHIC cannot be sent to another address than the one registered on the file.

Finally, if you did not receive your EHIC before your departure, a electronic version is available in the ‘Mes informations’ section of your ameli account. This digital version allows you to proove your coverage in a European Union (EU) country or Switzerland.

I wish you a nice day.
