Is my EHIC card still valid?
Your EHIC card will be valid until it expires, and you can continue to use it when travelling to the EU. Your current EHIC will no longer be valid in EFTA countries: Switzerland, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. Some UK residents will be eligible to apply for a new EHIC card, which is valid in EFTA countries. Please see the NHS web page for more details on who is eligible.

FAQ
Can I obtain a Green Card to cover my fleet of vehicles?
A Green Card is required to cover the registration number of the individual vehicle, regardless of whether it is part of a fleet. One Green Card will be needed to cover each vehicle insured under one policy when being driven in the EU.
Most commercial fleet motor policies will have been purchased through a broker. If this is the case then businesses should speak to their broker about issuing Green Cards. Some brokers may have the ability to issue green cards on behalf of the insurer, others will go via the insurer.
If your employees change vehicles, they will need to carry the Green Card that is registered to the registration of the vehicle they are driving.
If the vehicle is towing a trailer, you will also need a separate green card for that trailer.
It may be the case that the insurer/broker doesn’t have the detailed registration of each vehicle within your fleet. You may need to provide this information to your insurer or broker if requested.
