Renew a Québec Health Insurance Card
How do I renew my Québec health card?
Use RAMQ’s renewal questionnaire. It starts by asking whether you received a renewal notice; a lost or missing notice has its own route.
Where to begin
- Open the official renewal questionnaire and choose whether you received, lost or did not receive a notice.
- Follow the instructions shown for your situation and arrange any required photo.
- If your immigration document or status changed, check whether you need to re-register instead.
Before you open the official service
- Whether you received a renewal notice
- Your card’s expiry and any change in immigration documents
Keep your actual documents and account details off this website. Use the official service’s current checklist before applying.
What to check for your situation
A card expired for more than 6 months has a CAD 25 renewal fee plus photo cost. RAMQ’s live questionnaire determines the applicable procedure.
Fees, processing times and document rules can change. This page helps you navigate; it does not confirm eligibility or replace the government’s instructions.
