In addition, they have the possibility to store in their digital wallet the insurance capacity of their family members, who are indirectly insured to them, such as their children for example.

More specifically, the citizen:

  • He first selects “Insurance Capacity” from the list of available Gov.gr Wallet documents.
  • He then registers his AMKA. If he wishes to add the insurance capacity of an indirect member, he also registers the AMKA of the member.

In this way, e-EFKA insured persons will have at their disposal, through the Gov.gr Wallet, information on the insurance capacity of themselves and the indirect members insured by them, as well as the expiry date, at any time. so that they take the necessary actions for its renewal in time.
