Insurance in travel

If you already have a health insurance policy, it covers you while you are travelling (provided the destination is included within the geographical limits mentioned in your policy). This coverage is usually limited to medical emergencies only.

However, if you want protection for travel-related issues such as trip delays, baggage loss, cancellations, or other non-medical expenses, you will need to purchase a separate travel insurance policy.

This way, you’re fully covered for both health emergencies and travel-related risks.

Hi Sir, your health insurance coverage was provided under a group policy by your employer. As per policy terms, the coverage ends once your employment visa is cancelled. Unfortunately, a refund is not applicable under group policies. To remain insured, you will need to purchase a new individual health insurance policy. We can assist you in choosing a suitable plan based on your current visa status and requirements.

My family lives back home in India. Will my term insurance cover them as dependents even if they live in India?

If you currently hold a policy in your own name, adding family members residing in India as covered members is generally not possible. However, you can absolutely include them as nominees in your term insurance plan, ensuring they receive the full payout in the unfortunate event of your passing.
