When certain conditions are met, then it is possible to apply for C- (short term) or D-visa (long term) to travel to Estonia and apply for residence permit after arrival.<\/p>\n<p>The visa and residence permit application process will usually begin after a student has been accepted to study on a chosen programme and after the Academy has forwarded the required acceptance documents.<\/p>\n<p>Please find more information concerning residence permits <a href=\"https:\/\/www.studyinestonia.ee\/living\/visa-and-residence-permit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Healthcare<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p>International students studying in Estonia are not covered by the Estonian Health Insurance Fund (<em>Tervisekassa<\/em>) unless they are employed in Estonia or have the right of permanent residence or a long-term residence permit.

You should apply for that from the social service authorities in your home country\u00a0before arriving in Estonia.<\/p>\n<p>Necessary health care is not always free of charge \u2013 the patient\u2019s co-payment should be paid according to Estonian tariffs.
