Check your health insurance status online

If you live in Saudi Arabia as an expat, valid health insurance is mandatory for Iqama renewal and most visa services. Here’s the fastest way to check your policy status and expiry on the official portal.

  • Go to the Council of Health Insurance (online services).
  • Under “Inquire About Insurance”, choose Identity Number.
  • Enter Iqama number (10 digits) or Border number (issued at entry).
  • Type the image verification code exactly and select OK.
  • View your insurance status, insurer name, policy number, class/beneficiary number, deductible, and expiry date.

What you’ll see (and how to read it) 

The CHI portal results page shows the following details after entering the Iqama/Border number:

  • Insurer/Policy number: Who covers you and the specific policy reference.
  • Beneficiary number/class: Your member ID and coverage class within the policy.
  • Deductible: The share you pay on eligible services before insurance contributes.
  • Expiry date: The date your policy lapses; renew before this date to avoid service disruptions.
  • Status: Active/Inactive; inactive may block Iqama renewal.

Checking for family members 

  • For a dependent with an Iqama: Enter the dependent’s Iqama number.
  • For a new arrival awaiting Iqama: Enter their Border number from the passport entry stamp/visa page.
  • If nothing appears, confirm the dependent was added to your policy with your insurer.

Troubleshooting 

  • No policy found: Recheck the number type (Iqama vs Border). If you just bought/renewed insurance, allow 24 to 72 hours for sync.
  • Captcha keeps failing: Refresh the image and retype carefully; avoid autofill.
  • Using Border number, but Iqama already issued: Use your Iqama number once issued; Border records may no longer return results.
  • Name mismatch or duplicated records: Contact your insurer to update your profile in the CHI system.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Where do I find my Border number? 

On your passport entry stamp/visa page, the format may vary by issuer.

My insurer changed. Do I need to do anything? 

Ensure your employer/insurer updates CHI records before renewal.

Is this the same as Tawakkalna/Absher? 

No. Those apps show identity/permit data; insurance status is verified on the CHI portal.
