Hello everyone,

Moving abroad requires adequate insurance coverage.

What type of insurance expatriates need the most in South Korea: health, house or liability insurance? All of them? Do they come as a package?

Are there other insurance options to consider like critical illness, damage or property insurance?

Is it better to purchase insurance from an expat insurance specialist or from a local insurance provider?

And what about insurance costs?

Tell us about your experience in South Korea.

Thanks!

Hi,
Me and my wife are covered under the national health care system which I was told is mandatory. The cost is just over 100,000 won per month. This rate will go up or down according to ones assets such as house, car, etc.
