Travelling overseas for a holiday soon? Be sure to have a travel insurance with COVID-19 coverage.
Below are the tips on getting a Travel Insurance with COVID-19 coverage and a comparison of all the COVID-19 benefits and premium cost from the insurers in Singapore.
Summary of Essential COVID-19 Coverage for your Vaccinated Travel Lane VTL holidays
Overseas Medical Expenses
Do note that certain countries may require you to have certain amount of Overseas Medical Expenses coverage on your travel insurance and COVID-19 before you can enter. This is when it is medically necessary for you to be treated in an overseas hospital after being tested positive for COVID-19. Cost of healthcare may be higher for a foreigner/tourist. Different insurers offer different amount of coverage on COVID-19. Any other kind of medical condition will fall back on the main coverage limit which you need to refer to the product brochure.
Emergency Medical Evacuation
When the emergency assistance provider certifies that it is medically necessary to transfer you to another location for medical treatment or to repatriate you back to Singapore.
Quarantine Allowance
If you receive a positive Covid-19 result while overseas and not really feeling sick just asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and is required to self-isolate based on the particular VTL country requirement.
Trip Cancellation
Common cause of cancellation is when you unfortunately test positive before your flight and your travel expenses are not recoverable from the hotel and/or airline.
