Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is a must-have when you travel abroad. You can forget sunscreen but not your insurance cover.

So how does it work? Well, it depends on the type of travel insurance you take.

• A decent travel insurance policy will cover emergency medical expenses.
• A good insurance cover will reimburse you for theft or loss of your baggage and personal items.
• An excellent travel insurance policy will go even further: it will cover you if you’re into adventure sports, pay a ticket to your relative to visit you if you get stuck, give you a 24/7 helpline for assistance, and much more.

It’s important you choose the right travel insurance when visiting the States. First, because it’s a requirement to get a US visitor visa. Second, all medical insurance is private in the US; so a visit to the doctor can cost you a small fortune.

That said, the US and Canada are often not covered by a “worldwide” travel insurance policy. But with Beema, you’re safe. Choose our Travel Smart option and you will be prompted to add our “US & Canada” extra coverage.

Mishaps can happen to you. But you can also be “the source” of the mishap. This is basically what a personal liability cover protects you from: damage you may unintentionally cause to another person during your trip.

Typically, you’d have to visit a branch office of your insurance company, present a bunch o papers, and so on. At Beema, we made it simple. You hop over to our quote calculator, fill in some basic information, and your quote is ready in 3 minutes.
