Can you get health insurance and open a bank account in Germany if you're unemployed?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 32 views

Yes, you absolutely can get health insurance and open a bank account in Germany even if you're unemployed, as long as you've completed your Anmeldung (official registration of residence). Make sure to mention that you're unemployed, as this can qualify you for lower insurance rates. For a bank account, you might want to research different banks; many offer contracts and services in English.
