Traveling abroad opens up exciting adventures and unexplored places. However, along with positive emotions comes the realization that unforeseen situations can arise at any time, creating risks to our well-being and budget. Here's why it's a must before traveling abroad to take out travel insurance.


Medical expenses are one of the key arguments in favor of insurance. After all, an illness or accident abroad can turn into a financial disaster. A travel insurance policy allows you to reduce the budgetary burden in case of medical care.


In addition, the insurance provides the possibility of emergency evacuation and repatriation in case of serious illness or injury, which is especially important away from home.


It is also worth noting that some countries require proof of insurance to obtain a visa or when crossing the border. Thus, insurance may become a prerequisite for traveling to some regions.
