You should examine whether it makes sense to open a bank account in Germany. If you are only in Germany for a short time, bring enough cash with you and/or have the opportunity to withdraw cash here free of charge, you can safely do without opening an account.

Please note: Many official offices in Germany only accept cash and not payment by credit card.

In Germany, it is compulsory to have health insurance.

In EU countries and some other European countries, people with health insurance have a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), which is also valid in Germany. Students who do not have an EHIC must take out health insurance or take out health insurance abroad in their home country. Information on German health insurance can be found here.

During online enrollment, a copy of the EHIC card or the membership certificate of a health insurance company must be uploaded.

If you come from an EU or EEA country, Switzerland, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Turkey, Tunisia or the United Kingdom, you are already insured in your home country and cannot take out health insurance in Germany. In this case, you must contact a local health insurance fund in Germany, e.g. AOK, TK, DAK, BARMER, BKK, etc., and obtain confirmation that you are exempt from registering for German statutory health insurance.

Important note: If you take up employment or self-employment alongside your studies or come from another country, you must take out insurance in Germany.

Validity of the EHIC
However, the area covered by the EHIC only applies to direct medical treatment in emergencies. The coverage of other services, such as special medical monitoring for chronic illnesses, must be clarified in advance with the health insurance company. In such cases, it may be advisable to take out international health insurance.

From January 1, 2013, every household will have to pay contributions for broadcasting equipment. With the latest reform of the Interstate Broadcasting Treaty, a flat rate will then be payable per household for all devices, meaning that no citizen will be able to exempt themselves from this fee.

Each household will then pay 17.50 euros per month, which corresponds to the previous maximum rate. It does not matter which devices are available and used in the household. A further EUR 17.50 will be payable for each additional home, such as second, secondary or vacation homes. One contribution is payable per apartment.

From 2013, students who live in a shared flat will no longer have to pay individually for their radio sets, as was previously the case. In future, the following will apply: The broadcasting fee of €17.50 per month will only be payable once per apartment - regardless of the number of broadcasting devices and residents.
