Insurance is not only a mandatory document for traveling between countries of the world, but also a guarantee of safety and confidence of a tourist during trips. At the same time, the policy not only guarantees the provision of medical care outside the home country, but also helps in other common situations, such as lost luggage at the airport or migration problems due to the loss of documents when crossing the border.

How much does insurance cost in 2025 and what risks does it cover - we will tell you further in the material.

What does the cost of an insurance policy depend on?

- Number of insured persons;

- List of risks covered by the insurance policy.


What risks does a travel insurance policy cover for traveling abroad and what is its cost?


Available rates for a travel insurance policy can be divided into the following groups:


Insurance policies with basic coverage

This insurance covers a basic list of risks related to medical care and patient transportation. This coverage is enough to have reliable assistance if you get sick abroad. Also, such a policy meets the requirements of most countries for insurance for obtaining a tourist visa or visa-free travel.

Its main advantage is its affordable cost.

However, such insurance policies usually do not provide compensation for additional risks (luggage loss, flight delay, legal support, etc.)
