Here's what you need to know about medical travel insurance
We have listed the most important facts about medical travel insurance for the application of a Schengen visa:
- If your foreign guest needs to apply for a Schengen visa, medical travel insurance is mandatory.
- You can take out medical travel insurance for your foreign guest and pay the premium.
- Existing ailments, illnesses and disorders that already existed on or before the commencement date of the insurance are not insured and are therefore not eligible for reimbursement. This also applies to medicines that are used. Checks and a (hospital) birth of a foreign insured are therefore also excluded from this type of travel insurance.
- The medical travel insurance for the application for a Schengen visa is exclusively intended for sudden and unexpected medical costs during a stay in the Netherlands or other Schengen countries.
- Before you take out the policy, you should have read the coverage overview and the policy conditions, so that you know what your guest is or is not insured for.
- Ask your insurer whether you will get the premium back in the event of a negative visa decision. A visa application can be rejected. In that case, you would like a refund of the premium paid from the insurance.
