What is International Travel Insurance?

International travel insurance financially protects you in the case of lost passports, lost checked baggage, or additional hotel expenses, among other contingencies.

Before starting your journey, there is an extensive list of things to be done – applying for a passport and visa, booking tickets, packing your luggage and everything you need for a comfortable visit. Whether a budget-friendly vacation or a luxurious overseas trip, travelling holds a unique significance for each of us. With such meticulous planning, you would not expect things to go wrong. However, any travel opportunity could expose you to some hidden risks - falling sick and getting hospitalised, losing your checked-in baggage, or facing a trip delay due to severe weather conditions.

At Care, you can choose a customized international travel insurance cover that will provide coverage for various medical and non-medical expenses you may incur during your foreign trip. In short, overseas travel insurance will safeguard your overseas journey from travel-related inconveniences.

Is Overseas Travel Insurance Mandatory for When you Travel Abroad?

All countries have specific entry rules, and some have made overseas travel medical insurance mandatory for international travellers. For example, if you plan to visit countries in the Schengen Area, make sure you have valid foreign travel insurance coverage, as it is a prerequisite for visa application. An overseas travel insurance plan will offer you financial comfort against unforeseen travel risks, including emergency hospital treatment, personal accidents, loss of belongings, and repatriation in case of death.

We recommend an international travel medical insurance cover even if it is not mandatory in the country you are going to. It is vital for a few important reasons. Firstly, healthcare in many countries, including the USA, is unaffordable, especially for Indian tourists. Additionally, the travel uncertainties such as have always made travellers anxious – trip delays or loss of checked-in baggage can make travellers anxious . Our International Travel Insurance - Explore will cover you wherever you go! free you from all travel worries.
