These documents mean that your <strong>home country’s social protection institution</strong> will cover your health care expenses, even if they are incurred in France.</p> <p>You can apply for your EHIC or provisional replacement certificate through your home country’s social protection institution before you come to France.</p> <p>To learn more, please refer to our article on ameli.fr: “<a href="https://www.ameli.fr/assure/droits-demarches/etudes-emploi-retraite/etudiant/french-social-security-registration-process-foreign-students">Foreign student: the French social security registration process</a>”</p></div> <div class="body-ft"></div> </div> Thu, 30 Aug 2018 13:01:35 GMT https://forum-assures.ameli.fr/questions/1735035-i-foreign-student-from-an-country-planning-to-study-in-france-how-do-i-get-social-security-coverage-in-france/answers/3919363 https://forum-assures.ameli.fr/questions/1735035-i-foreign-student-from-an-country-planning-to-study-in-france-how-do-i-get-social-security-coverage-in-france/answers/3919363 3919363 answer 0 https://forum-assures.ameli.fr/users/9291123 https://dimelo-users-production.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/identity_avatars/cd414b58092013f2/avatar_normal.png?3389a2e 1735035 <div class="body "> <div class="body-hd"></div> <div class="body-bd"><p>Are you living in another EU country and planning to come to France to begin your higher education or continue studies that you began elsewhere?
