How much does travel insurance for a Schengen Visa cost?

The cost of your travel insurance policy depends on:

  • The activities that you will be engaging in
  • The number of travelers included in your policy

What's the cost of travel insurance with 30,000 Euros coverage?

Europe travel insurance vs. Schengen Insurance: What's the difference?

The main difference between Europe travel insurance and Schengen insurance is in their coverage areas. Europe travel insurance provides coverage for the entire European continent, while Schengen insurance is designed specifically for the Schengen zone.

Your choice of travel insurance depends on your travel plans. Europe travel insurance may be a better option if you intend to visit countries beyond the Schengen area. 

On the other hand, if you only need to meet the Schengen visa requirements, it’s best to opt for a Schengen visa-specific travel insurance policy, as it is designed for your specific requirements.

Review the countries covered by your chosen travel insurance policy to ensure you have the correct coverage.
