Remember to pay Kela's student healthcare fee

Higher education students who study for a degree and who have registered as attending must pay a student healthcare fee. The new due date for the spring term is 15 March 2024.

The due dates for the student healthcare fee were rescheduled at the beginning of the year. The due date for the spring term is 15 March for students who register as attending by 31 January. For students who register as attending on or after 1 February, the due date remains 31 July.

The 2024 rate of the student healthcare fee is EUR 36.80 per term. Students can now go to OmaKela to pay the fee.

You do not have to pay the healthcare fee if you have social security coverage from another EU/EEA country or from Switzerland or the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.
