Frequently Asked Questions (National Health Insurance)

QuestionHow is the Health Insurance Card for the National Health Insurance issued?

Response

It is usually issued at the counter when joining the National Health Insurance, but it may be sent by mail due to deficiencies in the documents.
In addition, the Health Insurance Card will be updated every two years in October, so in the year of renewal, a new Health Insurance Card will be mailed by simple registered mail in September. However, if there are any unpaid National Health Insurance Taxes, it may not be mailed and will need to be picked up at City Hall. In this case, you will need to provide tax payment consultation and identification documents (such as a driver's license, passport, or My Number Card) when receiving it.
