Belgian citizens moving to Spain are EU citizens, so they generally follow the EU residency registration process rather than a non-EU visa route. Private health insurance may still be important for the EU residency certificate / CUE, retirement, family relocation or private healthcare access in Spain.

Talk to us
An Belgian citizen settling in Spain? We help expats compare Sanitas plans and request personalised quotes in English. We cannot guarantee residency approval, insurance acceptance or cover for pre-existing conditions, and we do not provide medical advice or book medical appointments.
Why Sanitas
Sanitas is one of Spain’s largest private insurers and has been part of the Bupa group since 1989. For people arriving from abroad, the practical draw is usually the size of the medical network and how much of it works in English.
Network access, benefits and available services depend on the plan you hold and where you live.
The process
Most people arrive here unsure whether they are ready to buy anything. You do not have to be — the first two steps cost nothing and commit you to nothing.
