It should not be regarded as a substitute for insurance – failure to take out comprehensive insurance can lead to considerable financial and logistical difficulties for you and/or your family should problems arise. For example, an air ambulance to repatriate you home following a serious accident can cost in the region of €20,000 – this is not covered under the European Health Insurance Card.  Passports  Keep your passport in a safe place – carry a photocopy of your passport with you (also leave a photocopy with your family at home and ensure they have easy access to long form of your birth cert) and leave the original locked away. If your passport is lost/stolen, the Embassy or nearest Honorary Consulate can issue you with an Emergency Travel Certificate (ETC) – you will have to get a police report and come in person to one of our offices.
