Originally posted by Mordac View PostChildren, pensioners, students and those earning below the threshold don't pay NI, so the fact you haven't been paying shouldn't be an issue.

Unless there is a reciprocal arrangement in place, overseas visitors should either have insurance, which should be a condition of visa entry anyway, or demonstrate the means to pay for any treatment.
