Quick Answer
Direct Answer

Plan A immigration insurance in Cyprus costs €170 per person per year for any age until 70, and €270 per person per year for ages 70 and over. There are no other tiers: the price is the same flat €170 for children, working adults, and retirees under 70. Prices are essentially identical across licensed Cyprus insurers because Plan A is a regulated minimum product, so the schedule of benefits is the same everywhere.

Plan A is the medical insurance every non-EU national needs to register with the Cyprus Civil Registry and Migration Department. It is also the cheapest mandatory insurance product anyone living in Cyprus has to hold, far less than private health insurance, and usually less than the cheapest car insurance policy. The pricing is simple: a flat €170 per person per year for any age until 70, and €270 per person per year once the insured is 70 or over.

This page focuses on the price tag itself. For the full coverage breakdown, the documents accepted at the immigration counter, and the difference between Plan A and full private health insurance, see our complete guide to immigration medical insurance in Cyprus.

How Much Does Plan A Immigration Insurance Cost Per Year in Cyprus?

A standard Plan A policy in Cyprus costs €170 per person per year for any age until 70, and €270 per person per year for ages 70 and over. There is no separate child rate, no escalation at 60 or 65, and no extra band for the very elderly: just the two flat tiers.

The figures below are the standard Cyprus market prices for a Plan A certificate. They are based on quotes we routinely issue at DigiCare from licensed Cyprus insurers, cross-checked against the standard Plan A schedule filed with the Insurance Companies Control Service. Family pricing is the sum of the per-person premiums.

Age 70 and over€270Flat rate; no further escalation for older insureds

Why this matters:
Plan A is the only mainstream Cyprus insurance product issued with no medical exam and no pre-existing condition disclosure. That is what makes the pricing simple and predictable. Older applicants who would be uninsurable in private health markets still pay the same flat €270 per year for the standard certificate the residence permit application requires.

What Affects the Price of Immigration Insurance in Cyprus?

There are really only two variables: the insured person's age (under 70 or 70 and over) and whether the policy is for one person or several. The wording is regulated by the Insurance Companies Control Service, the Cyprus authority that approves the standard Plan A schedule, so the cover itself does not change between insurers and the price tag does not move either.

Once you know Plan A is a standardised product with a fixed two-tier price, the question is not what makes one quote €170 and another €270; it is whether the certificate will be accepted at the Migration Department counter. The points below cover the few things that can still affect what you actually pay or whether the policy will be issued at all.

  • Age. There is one threshold and one only: the year the insured turns 70. Until then, Plan A costs €170 per person per year. From age 70 onward, it costs €270 per person per year. There is no further escalation for the very elderly.
  • Family or individual. A household policy with named dependants costs the sum of the per-person premiums (€170 each under 70, €270 each at 70 and over). Submitting one family certificate is faster at the immigration counter than five separate ones, but the total premium is the same.
  • Validity period. Plan A is normally written for 12 months to match the Pink Slip cycle. The Migration Department expects an in-date certificate at every renewal, so the natural buying rhythm is annual.
  • Sales channel. Because the wording and the price are both standardised, a broker quote and a direct-to-insurer quote should match exactly. If a quote is materially lower than €170 for an adult under 70, check the schedule of benefits: you may be looking at a non-Plan A travel product the Migration Department will reject.
Practical note:
Plan A does not ask any health questions. There is no medical history form, no exam, no waiting period, and no exclusion for pre-existing conditions in the regulated wording. That is what makes the two-tier flat price possible: the insurer does not need to risk-rate individuals, only their age band.

Where to Buy the Cheapest Compliant Immigration Insurance

The simplest way to buy a compliant Plan A certificate is to do it directly with us at DigiCare. You can purchase your immigration insurance online on our immigration medical insurance page and receive the stamped policy by email the same day.

Prefer to handle it by email? Just write to info@digicare-insurance.com with your full name as it appears on your passport and your date of birth, and we will email back the compliant Plan A certificate. Either route gets you the exact same regulated policy at the standard price.

  • Confirm the insurer is licensed by the Cyprus Insurance Companies Control Service. The certificate must be on a Cyprus insurer letterhead with a Cyprus VAT number; foreign expat or travel policies are not equivalent.
  • Get the quote in writing with your full name as it appears on your passport, the policy period, and the schedule of benefits attached. The Migration Department checks all three at the counter.
  • Match the policy period to the permit duration. A Pink Slip is renewed yearly, so a 12-month policy is standard.
  • If you are applying with family, ask for one household policy with named dependants, or buy each member their own certificate, but use the same insurer to keep the paperwork consistent.
  • Buy from an insurer or broker that issues the stamped certificate the same day. The bottleneck is the immigration appointment, not the paperwork.
  • Avoid quotes that look too cheap. Anything materially below €170 for an adult under 70, or €270 for someone aged 70 and over, is almost always a non-compliant travel product or a stripped-down Plan B with a lower hospital cap. The Migration Department will reject either.
What this means for you:
Because Plan A is a regulated, standardised product with a fixed two-tier price, you should not be shopping on premium at all. Pick the broker or insurer with the cleanest online quote and a same-day stamped certificate. A cheap certificate that gets refused at the counter costs you the immigration appointment, not just the premium.

Bottom Line

Plan A immigration insurance in Cyprus costs €170 per person per year until age 70, and €270 per person per year for ages 70 and over. The cover is regulated and identical across all licensed insurers, so the price tag is essentially fixed at those two numbers. Compared to the alternatives a Cyprus resident might consider, private health insurance from €300 to €5,000 per year, travel insurance from €30 to €80 per short trip, or third-party car insurance from €180 per year, Plan A is the cheapest mandatory policy on the list.

If you are non-EU and applying for a residence permit in Cyprus, the practical question is not how to find a lower Plan A price, it is how to get a compliant Plan A certificate stamped and emailed before your immigration appointment. Pick a Cyprus-licensed insurer or broker with a same-day workflow, file the certificate, and move on.
