As reported to Noonsite by Audrey at Noumea Yacht Services.

It is now a requirement that every member of the crew must have a Health insurance document which includes repatriation. The only exception is for French and other EU citizens.

Without evidence of this insurance it will not be possible for the boat to be cleared into New Caledonia and it will be refused entry.

If using a clearance agent, then you should be advised of this requirement in advance of your visit.
