Hi, can anyone tell me how much the monthly rate of SGK is please (for a couple)?聽

Also, does SGK cover the health insurance requirement for residency, or is another also needed?

Many thanks

@janecrrphilae I think around EUR 100 pm for a couple (perhaps a bit more), good luck.

Hi, thankyou, that seems a lot. Does anyone have any advice about health insurance as to whether the SGK or private is best?

As I understand SGK per person would be around EUR 70 per person. Best I do not know, no real experience so far (luckily)

@moradpourrastegar Why not take a local Turkish health insurance (having a non domestic is asking for issues/problems)

@cdw057

Thanks, I would think about local health insurance. I don't real need one ,it is only for my ekamet application. Lot of people told I don't need one as I am over 70 years old. Cheers
