Tips on travel health insurance abroad

  • Before the stay abroad

    Many embassies require a confirmation of insurance for a visa. You should therefore take out insurance in good time. If the travel period is postponed later, you can have the insurance period changed. An e-mail before the planned departure date is sufficient. If the notification is sent after the originally planned departure date, we will need proof (copy of passport or ticket) from you.

  • During the stay abroad
