International travel insurance

One important document needed for international travel is a travel medical insurance. This is strictly needed as one of the requirements in securing a Schengen visa when I applied at the Czech Embassy in Manila before my trip to Prague. I even noticed that one of the applicants’ papers were returned since he lacked the proper insurance documents. The Czech Embassy has a list of certified insurance companies to provide guidance for the applicants.

For most international travelers, especially those going abroad for the first time, choosing a good travel medical insurance can be tough. Most local medical insurance policies provide limited or even no coverage should accidents happen or losses be incurred during travel. Medical treatment is important and usually this tends to be expensive when you’re away from home. International travel could be fun but risky as well.

Thus, it’s essential for travel bugs to have protection via international travel insurance and MultiNational Underwriters (www.mnui.com) can assist those planning for a trip abroad with their travel insurance packages. They provide FREE international travel insurance quote for specific travel needs e.g. the Atlas Travel Series which provides short-term health insurance for individuals (tourists or businessmen), the CitizenSecure for individuals and families with international major-medical and term life insurance, or the StudentSecure providing worldwide health coverage for those studying abroad.
