Feather Insurance Reviews for Expats (Spanish Edition)

/

Established in 2018 by Rob Schumacher and Vincent Audoire, Feather Insurance stemmed from their personal struggles navigating the insurance landscape in Germany, despite being European themselves. Their vision was to develop insurance products that offered simplicity and transparency. After achieving success in the German market, they expanded their offerings to include affordable health insurance for expatriates relocating to Spain.

That's why Feather Insurance was designed to streamline all interactions, making processes from signing up to filing a claim and even cancellations easier and more transparent.

Feather offers 3 different plans for expat health insurance in Spain. Whilst most health insurance requires an upfront payment of a year, all of these plans can be paid monthly.

  • €45 for students under 35

  • €60 for students over 35 and non-students (digital nomads, freelancers, employed and unemployed)

  • €204 for retirees between 65 and 74 years of age
