Register for Québec health insurance with RAMQ
RAMQ’s registration guide starts with your situation: settling in Québec, coming for work or study, or returning after earlier coverage. Its guided questions identify the application route. Each family member needs the appropriate form and documents; prescription-drug insurance is a separate registration question.
