International students (including group students) must have appropriate and current medical and travel insurance while in New Zealand. Your insurance cover must commence before you get on a plane to New Zealand and be valid at least until the date your visa expires. If you do not have insurance, KIEC will arrange an Orbit or a Southern Cross Travel Insurance policy for you.
Insurance is compulsory for all intentional students studying at KIEC and will be charged automatically unless you show us proof that alternative insurance which
complies with the Code of Practice has already been arranged.
The Accident Compensation Corporation provides accident insurance for all New Zealand ci+zens, residents, and temporary visitors to New Zealand, but you may still be liable for all other medical and related costs. Further information can be viewed on
the ACC website at www.acc.co.nz
