Arrange insurance on-line

The travel insurance protects you against scores of unpleasant situations that may happen to you when travelling. The insurance comprises several parts that may be freely combined. The basic element is the medical expenses insurance to which you can choose various types of additional insurance:

additional accident insurance,
additional damage liability insurance,
additional luggage insurance,
additional tour cancellation insurance

The insurance may be arranged for one trip – short-terms trips, such as holidays or long-term trips lasting up to one year (e.g. this is suitable for stays abroad for the purpose of business or studies). For frequent travellers we offer year-round insurance for repeated trips in several options (business, personal, family, etc.)

Medical expenses insurance

The subject of this insurance is reimbursement of the cost of the necessary hospital treatment due to an illness or accident. The medical expenses insurance will also cover the cost of drugs, transportation to a hospital or transport of the sick person back to the Czech Republic up to the insurance indemnity limits.
