Student Housing Insurance: protect your home with peace of mind

Whether you’re moving into your first studio, joining a student residence or sharing a flat with housemates, accommodation is often the first big adventure of student life. And with it comes a legal obligation that many students only discover when signing their lease: home insurance is mandatory for every tenant in France.

What does student home insurance cover?

Good home insurance protects much more than four walls. It covers your personal belongings in case of theft, fire or water damage, as well as your civil liability if you accidentally cause damage to a neighbour or your landlord. If you’re studying abroad, a housing cover adapted to your host country may also be essential.

Shared flat, student residence, university housing: what are the specifics?

Every housing situation comes with its own rules. In a shared flat, the question of who covers what can quickly get confusing. In a student or university residence, some coverage may already be included but it’s rarely enough. In this category, you’ll find clear guides to understand exactly what you need depending on your housing situation.
