All foreign citizens from countries outside EU or EFTA who apply for a residence permit in Iceland, are required to obtain Medical Cost Insurance. It is valid for up to six months but ends when they have earned rights to be covered by the Icelandic Social Security Scheme.
It is important to insure oneself against accidents and mishaps. In Iceland some types of insurance are mandatory, like insurance for vehicles and insurance for properties. Life and critical illness insurance is not mandatory but we strongly recommend that new residents also buy Medical Cost Insurance for their first six months in Iceland.
