Buy OSHC.

Note:

  • Your policy must start from the date you'll arrive in Australia or the date that any previous policy ends (or is cancelled).
  • Your policy must cover until at least the end of your student visa.
  • How to calculate the start date and the end date of the visa (?)
  • If you hold a student dependent visa, you must be insured under the same policy as the main student visa holder. You are only eligible to hold a single OSHC policy if you are the primary visa holder.
