by International Students for Insurance Purchase and Claim Settlement
- Insurance Purchase
As required by Article 40 of the ‘Regulations on Administration of the Enrollment and Training of International Students’ (Ordinance No. 42) promulgated by the Ministry of Education, ‘the school shall adopt an all-international-student insurance system. The international student must purchase his insurance according to the relevant state regulations and school rules. The student who is yet to purchase his insurance shall buy his insurance within the time limit. Failure to make insurance purchase as due may result in the refusal of his admission by the school. The enrolled student who has failed to buy his insurance as required will be asked to quit school or be refused to register.’
According to the relevant regulations stipulated by this school, the degree student shall purchase his insurance at his registration when the school term begins. The non-degree student may purchase his insurance in his own country, which is effective in China and which should at least include the accident insurance and the hospitalization insurance. The student should present the original insurance policy or its photocopy, and complete the ‘Declaration of Insurance’ at the time of registration so as to ensure the effectiveness of the insurance during his studies.
Ping An Insurance Company of China provides the two types of insurance: accident insurance and hospitalization insurance for the international student who has failed to make his insurance purchase in his own country. Refer for detailed information to ‘Brief on Comprehensive Insurance Coverage by Ping An Endowment Insurance Co., Ltd. for Foreigners in China’.
