The basics

What Is the Sanitas Student Complement?

It is a specific complement aimed at young people studying outside Spain, subject to age, destination and policy conditions. It is designed to provide healthcare-related support and reassurance while the student is abroad.

Important: Add-ons, limits, waiting periods, reimbursement percentages and availability can vary depending on the Sanitas plan and current policy conditions. Some extras may need to be selected when you first apply or at renewal. Always ask us to confirm the current terms before choosing your cover.

Who Is It Designed For?

  • Parents wanting extra reassurance
Eligibility is age-based and should be checked — ask us to confirm the current age range and eligibility rules.

Important distinctions

What This Is — and Isn't

Is this the same as student visa health insurance for Spain?

No. This complement is for young people studying outside Spain. Student visa health insurance for Spain is different and depends on the applicant's visa route and Spanish requirements.

Is it the same as travel insurance?

No. It may provide healthcare-related support for study abroad, but it may not include all travel insurance benefits such as cancellation, baggage or delays.

For studying in Spain on a student visa, see student health insurance in Spain.

What to check

What Should Families Check?

  • Age eligibility
  • Destination country
  • Duration of study period
  • The main Sanitas policy
  • Medical expense limits
  • Emergency support
  • Pre-existing conditions
  • Documentation needed
  • Whether local student insurance is also required
  • The current quote

This depends on policy timing and Sanitas rules — it is best to ask before the student travels.
