HAYAH and APRIL Insurance Partner to Bring World-Class Health Insurance Solutions to the UAE

ABU DHABI, UAE, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HAYAH, the UAE's digital life insurer, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, has entered into a strategic partnership with APRIL, a global leader in insurance distribution and services based in Lyon, France. The collaboration has launched a new suite of innovative health insurance and International Private Medical Insurance (IPMI) solutions, now available to customers in the UAE.

Through this alliance, HAYAH is delivering comprehensive, flexible health coverage for individuals, families, and businesses — locally and internationally — through a fully digital experience.

HAYAH is enhancing its offering for the UAE's diverse and fast-growing population by leveraging APRIL's international expertise.

Together, the two firms are simplifying and expanding access to high-quality and customer-centric health protection across the Emirates. The partnership will soon extend the solution to additional locations in the region.

"HAYAH is proud to partner with APRIL to bring cutting-edge, digital-first health insurance solutions to the UAE," said Mohamed Seghir, CEO of HAYAH.
