How we evaluate
The checker compares product evidence against each requirement above. If evidence explicitly contradicts a requirement, the result is RED. If evidence is missing, the result is UNKNOWN rather than inferred. See /methodology/ for rule logic and the UNKNOWN > Wrong principle.
Proof package checklist
- Policy certificate showing unlimited coverage with no deductibles or co-payments.
- Documentation confirming insurer authorization to operate in Spain.
- Evidence that the policy covers risks insured by Spain’s public health system.
Common rejection traps
- Policies with coverage caps (Spain requires unlimited coverage).
- Deductibles or co-payments listed in policy documents.
- Certificates that omit Spain authorization or public system risk coverage.
- INFERENCE: Relying on marketing summaries without explicit policy wording leads to UNKNOWN outcomes.
FAQ
Q: What is the most common rejection reason?
A: Missing explicit proof for Spain authorization, unlimited coverage, and zero deductible/co-payments, which are required in the checklist (Source: BLS_ES_DNV_LONDON_2026, page 2, item 9; verified 2026-01-12).
Q: Are deductibles or co-payments allowed?
A: No. The checklist requires no excess or co-payments and no moratorium (Source: BLS_ES_DNV_LONDON_2026, page 2, item 9; verified 2026-01-12).

A: Yes. The checklist requires insurance contracted with an insurer authorized to operate in Spain (Source: BLS_ES_DNV_LONDON_2026, page 2, item 9; verified 2026-01-12).
Q: Why do some products show UNKNOWN for Spain DNV? A: UNKNOWN means the product evidence does not explicitly confirm one or more requirements. The checker does not infer compliance without explicit proof.
