For obtaining a student visa, health insurance is typically a mandatory requirement. 

Many countries require students to either purchase government-approved insurance or demonstrate they have adequate private health coverage. This is to ensure access to healthcare services during the study period without financial difficulties.

For example, in the USA, students are often required to buy health insurance provided by their university, which meets visa requirements. 

In countries like Germany, students must have insurance covering essential healthcare needs as per German regulations. It’s essential to check the specific insurance policies for each destination country, as requirements can vary.

Meeting these insurance requirements is crucial for a successful visa application, and it helps students stay prepared for any health-related issues while studying abroad. 

Be sure to arrange your insurance before applying for the visa, as proof may be required during the process.
