Protect Your Trip to the UK with Travel Insurance Online

Did you know? The cost of living in Great Britain is 6.5 times more than that in India. Suppose you spend ₹1000/day in India; you may have to spend ₹6500/day in the United Kingdom.

Thus, you may have to invest a lot of savings if you plan a trip to Great Britain, and despite that, you may have to stay prepared for any unforeseen risks you may be exposed to during your stay in the country. Fret not, as here’s when travel insurance for International journies comes into play!

International travel insurance for the UK from India ensures healthcare and financial support against emergency medical and non-medical contingencies. Read below for everything you should know about travel insurance for the UK while travelling to the UK.

When Can Travel Insurance for the UK be Helpful?

Whether travelling to the United Kingdom for leisure, studies or business, having a safety helmet that saves you from falling off the savings amidst dire circumstances can help greatly. Here are a few conditions when choosing UK travel insurance online can be helpful.

a. Expensive Medical Facilities: Getting medical treatment in a country as economically strong as London can cost you a fortune. While you should always consult your doctor before travelling with a pre-existing condition, travel insurance for international journies can help you when exposed to an unannounced medical emergency.

b. Loss of Belongings: Losing your belongings, whether to the airport authority or theft, can be an experience you didn’t sign up for! Sensing the financial stress of such circumstances, travel insurance for the UK from India backs you up under set conditions.

c. Trip Interruption: Whether you must cancel your trip or interrupt it in the middle due to an unavoidable condition, international travel cover bought from a reliable insurer can be a financial saviour!

d. For Higher Studies: Due to the expensive cost of living in the UK, universities offer health insurance at the time of admission. However, these policies have limited coverage and are offered at a very high premium. Here, student travel insurance with comprehensive coverage can be helpful as it offers exhaustive benefits at an affordable premium.

Is Travel Insurance Mandatory to Visit the UK?

Travel Insurance for the United Kingdom is not mandatory if you travel for work or leisure purposes. However, if you travel to the UK for higher studies, you may be asked to have travel health insurance throughout the term.

Although travel insurance is not mandatory when travelling to the UK, you can not deny that any unforeseen encounter with an emergency in the UK can spoil your entire trip! You may fall sick or encounter an incident in which you owe liability to a third party. To be prepared for such circumstances, you should always opt for travel insurance from a trusted insurer.
