Schengen visa insurance
Why travel insurance matters for a Schengen visa
Travel medical insurance is an important part of many Schengen visa applications. Applicants may need to provide evidence of appropriate insurance cover when submitting their visa application.
The policy information should correspond with the requirements of your visa application, including the relevant travel dates, destination area and level of medical cover. Requirements can vary, so it is important to check the latest instructions for your specific application.
Visa Global helps make the insurance side of your travel planning easier by helping you understand what information you need and by assisting with suitable insurance options.

Visa Global can help you enquire about longer-term travel insurance options for travel across Europe. For eligible travellers, 1-year insurance options can start from £25.
This can be useful for travellers who expect to visit multiple European destinations rather than arranging a new policy for every trip. The appropriate policy depends on the traveller, dates, destination requirements and insurer eligibility criteria.

Avoidable problems
Common Schengen insurance mistakes
Choosing the wrong policy or submitting incomplete insurance information can create unnecessary issues during the visa application process.
Buying the wrong area of cover
Your policy should cover the destinations relevant to your journey and application.
Using incorrect travel dates
The insurance period should be checked carefully against the dates connected to your application.
Not checking the medical cover
Look at the level and scope of medical protection rather than choosing a policy on price alone.
Submitting incomplete insurance evidence
Make sure the relevant certificate or policy documentation is available when you need it.
Assuming every cheap policy qualifies
Price alone does not determine whether an insurance product is suitable for a particular visa application.
Not checking the final policy wording
Exclusions, limits and eligibility conditions should always be reviewed before purchasing.
