- What visitors pay. Dutch health insurance covers PEP (it counts towards the excess). GGD Rotterdam-Rijnmond says people with foreign insurance pay for the whole PEP course themselves at the pharmacy and claim it back afterwards: expect about €1,000. The GGD's own STI tests are free and anonymous but only for people who meet its criteria (under 25, men and other people with a penis who have sex with men, people with symptoms); everyone else is pointed to a GP or a self-test. Rotterdam's private clinics charge from €115 for a chlamydia and gonorrhoea test and €165 with HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B.Published by GGD Rotterdam-Rijnmond· 22 Sep 2026
