Tips for Schengen Visa Travel Insurance

 

Before purchasing a travel insurance policy for your upcoming travel to Europe you should make sure that you don’t already have an existing plan, or if you do, that it provides coverage that meets the mandatory Schengen Visa requirements. You should also check the restrictions and limitations to any travel insurance policy you have to check if it provides the right coverage for your trip to Europe.

You should also check on your travel plans and what you plan to do and take with you. For example, if you are traveling by car in the Schengen Area, check that your insurance will cover you in the event of accidents. Or, if you are planning more dangerous activities like extreme sports, make sure this is covered in your policy. You should also check that your insurance covers you for any valuable possessions.

Tips when traveling

It’s highly recommended for people with pre-existing conditions like allergies or asthma to carry medical information from their physician describing their condition and the drugs prescribed to maintain it. In case one has a chronic disease, again, it’s smart to be carrying any prescribed drugs you need in the amount needed for days spent traveling in Europe.
