Medical emergencies can happen at any time.

To help you better prepare for your trips abroad, Guichet.lu has added a new information page to its 'Life Events' section on what to do in the event of illness or an accident whilst travelling abroad (whether on holiday, a business trip, a study trip or a temporary stay).

This page is available in French, German and English and provides you with useful information in the event of a sudden health issue abroad.

The information namely includes:

• essential steps to take before you leave; and
• solutions if health care is needed or if a medical emergency occurs abroad.

Please note that the examples presented are fictitious and that the information provided is not exhaustive.
