Country by country: where the official answer lives
We do not retell the procedures of the country you live in — we say where the state itself publishes them, and send you there. Every link is the body’s own page, with the date we opened it. Only what we could verify is here.

What is not here: no “how to get healthcare in Germany” in our words. Those pages go stale faster than we could keep them true, and a retelling of an official page is always worse than the page.
We do not run, vet or summarise any of these — we only checked that the page belongs to the named body and opened on the date shown. A dead link is removed, not left to rot.
