Allianz: Cancel private health insurance

If you have taken out a private health insurance policy with Allianz and would like to cancel it, you need to pay attention to some important things. In particular, it is important to comply with the deadlines and corresponding formalities. Otherwise, the contract may be extended for another period.

What you need to pay attention to when canceling

Before you cancel your insurance with Allianz, it is important that you already have an alternative insurance in place - because in Germany there is a health insurance obligation.

• The cancellation must be in writing in any case, otherwise it is not legally valid.
• Be sure to include all important information in the cover letter. This includes your name and address and the contract number for easy assignment.
• Pay attention to the notice period. It is usually three months to the end of the contract period. The notice period for your contract can be found in the contract documents. If you are not sure, you can also contact the customer service of Allianz.

Cancel via the Internet - this is how it works

If you do not want to write the cover letter yourself, you can find a free template online at the cancellation service Aboalarm. In this you only have to enter your data, then you can download the completed termination letter and send it. You also have the option of sending the letter directly to Allianz via the website. However, there is a small fee for this, which ranges between 3.99 euros and 4.99 euros, depending on the payment method.
