Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is a mandatory requirement of student visas for all international students, except for students from a few European countries whose governments’ reciprocal health care agreements with Australia include eligibility for Medicare for students.

Overseas Student Health Cover is also required for all family members residing in Australia on a dependent visa.
