The Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Amman informs that as of December 1, 2020, the conditions for travel medical insurance for foreigners applying for a national visa have changed.
Travel medical insurance meets the new requirements if:

and the insurer:

• undertakes to cover the costs of health services provided to the insured directly to the entity providing these services - on the basis of an invoice issued;
• provides a 24-hour service of the alarm center, which accepts reports of events subject to the insurer's responsibility.
