Why Do I Need Travel Insurance For Schengen Visa To Visit Europe?

 

A requirement for obtaining a Schengen Visa is to have insurance covering you in all states in the Schengen Area up to medical costs of €30,000. The easiest way to do this is to obtain Schengen travel and medical insurance from an accredited provider, such as Schengen Visa Itinerary, which is the leading brand for this type of Travel Insurance.

Not all travelers require a Schengen Visa to travel to the Schengen Area, as countries including the U.S.A., Mexico, Brazil, and Canada have visa-free arrangements with the Schengen Zone. However, it is still strongly recommended you obtain insurance as all your medical costs, or those you may incur should something go wrong on your trip, may not be covered without obtaining travel insurance. If you are planning to travel to more than one Schengen country or want to be flexible with your itinerary, it is also a great way to ensure you are covered in the majority of countries in Europe.

What Does Europe Travel Insurance Policy Usually Cover?

A good travel insurance policy for Europe should cover the following costs:

•        Medical emergency (accident or sickness) while in the Schengen Area

•        Emergency evacuation

•        Repatriation of remains

•        Return of a minor

•        Trip cancellation

•        Trip interruption

•        Accidents, Injury or disablement benefit

•        Overseas funeral expenses

•        Lost, stolen or damaged baggage, personal effects or travel documents

•        Delayed baggage (and emergency replacement of essential items)

•        Flight connection missed due to airline schedule crash

•        Travel delays due to weather

•        Hijacking

•        Usually, the insurers cover pregnancy-related expenses, if the travel occurs during the first trimester. After that, insurance coverage varies from insurer to insurer.
