I'm pretty sure though you need health insurance if you are staying for longer than 3 months, no matter what kind of visa you are applying for.

Hi, I'm agree with winnipeg/toulouse. You will need a health insurance. Actually yo un need to provide the insurance contract/paper as part of your request for the visa. This apply for 1 day to n days.

Thanks! I'm trying to find info on the internet but everything is so vague. Do you know if I need a specific kind of health insurance? Or can I just use my regular local health insurance??
