What are the formalities for international travel?
Depending on your nationality, you will need a valid passport and a visa for international travel.
Visa
European and Schengen students do not need a visa to enter the territories of member states, and do not require a passport if they have a valid identity card.
Non-European students wishing to study abroad must have a passport and a visa.
You can apply for a visa at the embassy or consulate in your home country that represents the country in which you wish to study. Make sure you start the process as soon as possible, as some documents can take a long time to be issued.
For more information about applying for a visa to study abroad, please visit the following public website.
ATTENTION: if a passport is required in the country you are visiting, you must ensure that it is valid for the entire duration of your stay, or even longer.
Compulsory insurance
Medical coverage
Students from the European Economic Area must apply for a European health insurance card from their home country’s health insurance fund before they leave.
Students with an Ameli account can request their card on the following website: link.
ITM-BS students wishing to study in a non-European country should contact the two partner universities and/or the embassy as soon as they are nominated. Each country has its own requirements and depends on state agreements.
In addition, all students can take out private insurance covering all medical risks, with no restrictions on rates.
Civil liability insurance during your studies
It covers damage to your home and possessions, and often includes your civil liability. Each school or country has its own requirements. Make sure you get all the information you need.
Civil liability insurance for your studies
Compulsory for all students, it covers bodily injury and property damage caused to third parties during your studies, internship or private life.
It compensates the victim for any damage you cause. This insurance may already be included in another insurance policy (housing insurance, for example). Check with your insurer to avoid outbidding.
