Holidays are supposed to be pleasant, and even if travel insurance may seem like an “unnecessary expense”, having one might potentially save you huge amounts of money.

There is a wide range of different types of travel insurance plans available, and you are also able to buy add-ons – known as riders.

The most common cover is protection in case you get ill and need medical attention. You will be able to see a doctor or hospital without worrying about expenses. And if you become seriously ill or suffer a serious accident, the policy might include free repatriation. If you get ill before you start the journey, the cover will protect you from cancellation expenses.

It is also a good idea to have cover for lost or stolen baggage or delayed flights. And students should consider an extensive travel insurance if they plan to study abroad.

Many insurance companies offer you the choice between a single travel with fixed dates flying to and from India and a multi-trip plan that can be used for unlimited travel within a certain period of time. Some insurers also offer cover for domestic travel.

Besides selling them as individual products, many companies also offer travel medical insurance as part of their health insurance plans.

Below is an overview of insurance companies offering travel insurance. You can also buy insurance cover from agents (representing a specific insurance company) or brokers (offering products from all insurers). The Insurance Brokers Association of India has a list of licensed insurance brokers.

Insurance prices are difficult to compare directly as the individual covers often vary a lot. For information about premiums and how to get an insurance quote, please click on the insurer’s name to go to the specific product page at their website.
