HEALTH
Australia has a world-class healthcare system called Medicare, but international students must have OSHC. Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is compulsory health insurance that students must maintain throughout their stay. This insurance covers doctor visits, part of the cost of medication, and hospitalization. The medical infrastructure, both public and private, is excellent and technologically advanced.
DRIVING LICENSE
Driving regulations in Australia are managed by each state. Generally, international students can drive with their foreign license (accompanied by an official translation if it is not in English) for a period of 3 to 6 months. After this time, most states require temporary residents to obtain a local Australian license, which may involve a knowledge or practical test depending on the country of origin.
