What Is the Best Travel Insurance for Schengen Visa?

 


The best Travel Insurance for Schengen Visa depends on each individual traveller, and what type of traveling they intend to do. Are you backpacking, flash packing, or going on a Bear Grylls Adventure?

Like we mentioned before, many insurance companies will have a fine print that stretches over numerous pages explaining the terms of the insurance. Even if it is a boring task, we strongly recommend that you read through all of these terms so you know exactly what your insurance covers and what it doesn’t. No insurance companies will cover any sickness that was present before the trip commenced, for example chronic asthma, joint pain or any other disease that did not occur on the trip itself.

Remember to also check if your Travel Insurance for Schengen Visa covers damage or loss of personal belongings, and if it covers the other party should you have an accident involving other people as well.

Of course, none of us want to end up in a situation where we have to use our travel insurance. However, one of our staff here at Schengen visa flight reservation actually had to use her travel insurance twice already! None of the incidents were severe, but hospital visits were required both times, and would have ended up costing thousands of dollars had she not had the insurance. So not only is it mandatory for your Tourist Schengen Visa Application, it’s also very risky not to have travel insurance, both for the sake of your health and your wallet!

  Schengen Travel Insurance Coverage: Travel insurance  is mandatory for Schengen visa countries. The Schengen visa basically allows the visa holder to travel to any (or all) member countries using one single visa, thus avoiding the hassle and expense of obtaining individual visas for each country. This is particularly beneficial for persons who wish to visit several European countries during the same trip. Travelers obtain the visa from the Consulate of the country of their main destination. If your main destination cannot be determined, the country you first enter is responsible for granting your visa. One thing many travelers may not know about the Schengen visa application process, however, is that they must provide proof of health insurance to obtain it. The insurance is designed to pay expenses that might arise in connection with repatriation for medical reasons, urgent medical attention, and/or emergency hospital treatment. Since June 2004, travelers who are subject to the visa

What is the Establishing proof of accommodation and How to get the Proof of Accommodation for Schengen Visa?

  •          Please note, you do not have to pre-pay for your hotel/rental in order to establish proof of accommodation on your Schengen visa application. Because you are not guaranteed to receive a Schengen visa, pre-paying for a hotel could result in you losing money in the event that your application is rejected. However, your proof of accommodation will likely be found credible so long as you indicate where you intend to stay on your trip, and establish that you have the means to pay for your accommodation upon receipt of your visa (or arrival in the Schengen area). •          Submitting a reservation for a hotel room for the specific dates corresponding to your entry and exit to/from the Schengen area can be a credible way of establishing proof of accommodation without pre-paying. •          Private accommodation can in certain cases stand as evidence that you have established proof of subsistence for your stay in your respective Member State (i.e. that you have the financial mean
