Yes, health insurance is mandatory for all international students in Switzerland.

Key points:
- Requirement: All students residing in Switzerland for more than three months must have adequate health insurance coverage.
- Timeframe: You must arrange for health insurance coverage within three months of your arrival in Switzerland.
- Types of Insurance:
- Swiss Insurance: You can purchase Swiss health insurance, which provides comprehensive coverage.
- Foreign Insurance: In some cases, your existing health insurance from your home country may be accepted if it meets the Swiss requirements. You must provide proof and get an exemption from your local Swiss authorities (canton).
- Cost: The cost typically ranges from CHF 80 to CHF 350 per month, depending on the provider and coverage.

Why is it important?
- Health insurance covers medical treatment, hospitalization, and emergencies during your stay.
- Without valid insurance, you may face difficulties with your residence permit and may be required to pay for any medical costs out of pocket.
