Immigration health surcharge for EU and Swiss students in the UK
From 1 January 2022, EU and Swiss full-time students studying in the UK can apply for a reimbursement of the immigration health surcharge (IHS). If you begin a course of study in the UK that is longer than 6 months, you must pay the IHS as part of your visa application. You’ll be able to apply for an IHS reimbursement from 1 January 2022. If you’re a student from the EU, your reimbursement will be backdated to include any surcharge payments made for a visa starting on or after 1 January 2021. You may be entitled to a full or partial reimbursement of your IHS payment if all of the following are true: you’re a full-time student in UK higher education, your visa started on or after 1 January 2021, you have a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) issued in an EU country or Switzerland, you do not work or do not intend to work in the UK.
