Tips Before Applying for Insurance

Choosing the right insurance can get tricky sometimes. Some travelers get insurance without actually investigating what the coverage in the insurance bought. In some cases, some have trouble with their insurance because the coverage does not fit with the requirements needed. So, to help you out, here are some tips for you to choose the right insurance.

  • Know what insurance you need. It is important to know what you actually need on your trip. Think of the unexpected situation and think of what kind of insurance coverage can help you with that specific situation.
  • Know what is not covered. You must check the coverage of the insurance, some of the coverage might be there, some might be not there. Make sure to have the coverage needed for your trip.
  • Check if the insurance met the requirements set by the government. Before traveling, one must know its requirements, right? Not just in terms of papers or documents needed, but also in terms of standards set by the government. Like the standard set to COVID-19 insurance, the insurance must cover at least $100,000. Always check online for updates, for less trouble or mistakes to be made.
  • Check with the Thai embassy for the required duration before applying for insurance. In some cases, some insurances are invalidated because the duration of the trip and the duration of the insurance are not in sync. Always check with the Thai Embassy first to avoid cases that the policy duration period is not sufficient. In AXA Thailand’s case, you can choose the duration of your policy.
  • Don’t be motivated by price alone. Do not base the insurance on its cheapness, some of it might lack the coverage, and do not base it on expensiveness, some of it may be too much and will be a waste. Base it on the service that it is going to give you, make sure that it is enough and right for you. The difference comes in how you are serviced after the sale.
