AFTER EHIC CARD EXPIRES NEW GLOBAL HEALTH INSURANCE WILL BE LAUNCHED
UK passport holders will continue to benefit from free emergency medical treatment when travelling within the EU from January 1.
The Government confirmed that EHICs – European Health Insurance Cards – will still be valid after January 1, 2021.
This news should come as a relief to holidaymakers.
The EHIC will be replaced by a new UK Global Health Insurance Card for UK travellers, but those cards that have already been issued will remain valid until their expiry date.
However, from January 1,2021 EHICs or GHICs will no longer be valid in Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein or Switzerland.
