Travel Insurance
Travelling to a new country is exciting, whether you're planning a European holiday, heading to the UAE for business or exploring Southeast Asiaās beaches. But even well-planned trips can face occasional hiccups. This is where travel insurance comes in. A travel insurance policy provides financial protection against various trip-related emergencies that may occur during your trip. These can be events like medical emergencies, delayed flights, lost baggage and trip cancellations.
For instance, in 2024, 1 in 4 travellers stated airlines had either lost, delayed or damaged their luggage and offered no compensation. Thatās why having IndusInd travel insurance (formerly Reliance Travel Insurance) can be a game-changer. We help cover trip emergencies like luggage loss & delays, flight cancellations, medical emergencies and more, by offering compensation for any financial loss. So, if your airline delays your luggage, you get a payout to buy essentials.
Moreover, many countries, such as France, Germany, and Canada, mandate travel insurance as part of their visa processes; hence, it's essential to obtain travel insurance that is visa-compliant. With IndusInd Travel Insurance, you get high coverage, visa-compliant plans with sum insured options ranging from $100,000 to $500,000. We also offer quick cashless claims at any hospital overseas and 24/7 worldwide customer support through Europ Assistance. From take-off to touchdown, weāve got your back!
Reasons to Buy Travel Insurance
Medical Emergencies While Overseas
An overseas trip is a great way to unwind and tick new experiences off your bucket list. However, an untimely medical emergency -- like sudden sea-sickness while you're island hopping or if the exotic cuisine doesn't agree with you -- can quickly derail your trip itinerary. The last thing you want to do is spend all your trip funds on medical expenses.
Moreover, most countries we visit, such as the UAE, USA, UK, Canada, and Australia, have significantly higher healthcare costs, with even a short hospital stay costing lakhs. So, having a travel insurance plan can be a lifesaver in these situations.
At IndusInd General Insurance, we offer coverage of up to $500,000 for doctor visits, hospitalisation and more to beat the expensive healthcare costs abroad.
Trip Cancellations, Interruptions, Flight Delays & Missed Connections
Booking your flights and hotels in advance helps you save money and plan better. But if your trip gets cancelled due to rough weather, airline issues, or health emergencies, our travel insurance is there to help. We cover non-refundable expenses like pre-booked events, hotel stays, and flight tickets up to $600, so your money isn't lost. In fact, claims related to missed connections and airline delays accounted for 25% of total travel claims in 2024, highlighting how common these issues are.
We also cover trip interruption, i.e., you need to cut your trip short. This can be useful if youāre travelling under a tour package, or if youāre a student on a study visa and your semester gets interrupted. In this case, our student travel insurance offers a study interruption cover up to $10,000.
Moreover, long international itineraries with multiple connections can be easily disrupted with one delayed flight. For example, letās say youāre flying from Delhi to New York but have layovers in Dubai and London. A single flight delay at any one of these locations can lead to you missing your next flight, turning your layover into an extended stay. This can also result in additional costs for lodging and rebooking. Luckily, IndusInd travel insurance has got you covered for both flight delays (we pay $60 per day for up to 6 days) and missed connections (we pay up to $500).
Baggage Loss and Delays
Imagine arriving at your dream destination only to find that your checked-in bags are delayed or lost due to an airline mishap. Thatās why we cover the loss or delay of checked-in baggage. You get a payout of $100 for delays that exceed 12 hours and up to $1,500 in case the airline loses your bags completely. With this, you can replace essentials like clothes or toiletries, so you can still continue your trip while your luggage catches up with you.
Loss of Passport
The best part of visiting new countries is shopping and visiting the most popular tourist spots. But if you accidentally lose your passport while trekking through Nepalās mountain trails, exploring the bustling streets of Bangkok, or while island hopping in Greece, you can immediately contact us using the Self-i app. We cover passport loss up to $300*. We also help you find or put you in contact with the nearest consular office to help you get a replacement quickly, so your adventure doesnāt come to a halt.
Emergency Cash Assistance
Lost your wallet and cards when rushing to keep up with your itinerary? Donāt worry, weāve got you covered. Whether youāre out shopping in Ginza, Tokyo, navigating the Paris metro or exploring the bustling souks of Dubai, we cover accidental loss or theft related loss of your personal belongings, like your wallet, up to $300. All you need to do is contact us using the Self-i app to get your payout amount, and you can continue your trip without any delays. We offer this service 24/7, so you get prompt assistance no matter where you are.
100% Premium Refund for Visa Rejection
Visa processes can be complex, with most countries requiring you to buy travel insurance as part of their visa requirements. For example, Schengen area countries ā like France, Italy, Germany ā require everyone to have travel insurance with medical coverage. But if youāre worried about visa rejections and lost expenses, donāt worry, youāre fully covered. We offer a 100% refund of premiums paid* toward your IndusInd travel insurance plan in case of a visa rejection.
Personal Liability Coverage
Letās say your child accidentally breaks an expensive antique while youāre out shopping in Dubai, or you bump into a street vendor in Hanoi on your rented scooter. While these incidents are rare, it doesnāt hurt to be prepared ā and thatās why we cover personal liability costs up to $200,000. This can be especially helpful since incidents like these can lead to you having to pay hefty compensation costs.

How to Buy IndusInd Travel Insurance?
Things to Consider While Buying Travel Insurance Online
Policy Type
The type of policy youāll need will depend on your age. For example, senior citizens (over 61 years) would need a specialised senior citizen plan, since they require higher medical cover. A family of 4 going on vacation would benefit from a family travel insurance plan, rather than buying a separate plan for each family member.
And if you travel a lot for work or take frequent trips overseas throughout the year, buying an annual multi-trip travel plan would make sense, as it would be more cost-effective than buying a new plan for each trip.
Enough Coverage
Ensure the policy provides enough coverage for medical expenses, trip cancellations and other potential travel risks you may face based on the destination youāre travelling to. For example, if youāre visiting the US, getting a travel insurance policy with a high medical cover would be ideal. At IndusInd General Insurance, we offer sum insured options for medical coverage starting from $100,000 all the way up to $500,000.
We also offer coverage over and above this amount for trip emergencies like flight cancellations, baggage delays and loss, 24/7 emergency cash, and more for extensive protection.
Consider Trip Duration and Destination
The length and location of your trip, along with any layovers/transits, can impact your insurance needs. For instance, if you have a 2-week trip planned for Canada, your travel insurance requirements would be different compared to a student whoās planning to attend university there for a year, since theyāll require coverage for an extended period of time.
Similarly, the country youāre travelling to will also need to be taken into account. If youāre travelling to a budget-friendly destination like Vietnam, our popular/base coverage would suffice. For destinations like Dubai (UAE), Australia, the UK, the USA or Europe, our maximum coverage option would be ideal.
You also need to check if your travel insurance plan offers extensions in case you need to extend your trip due to an emergency. At IndusInd General Insurance, our plans offer 7-day extensions for flight delays and 30-day extensions for medical emergencies*.
Visa-Specific Requirements
Your travel insurance plan needs to be visa-compliant. This is because countries like the UAE, Turkey, and the 29 Schengen Area countries (e.g., France, Italy, Spain, Germany, etc) all require you to buy travel insurance as part of their visa process. Meanwhile, countries like the US and Nepal mandate travel insurance for specific travel purposes ā the US for student visas and Nepal for trekking or mountaineering.
At IndusInd General Insurance, we offer travel insurance plans that are visa-compliant and fulfill the minimum Schengen medical coverage requirement of ā¬30,000. We also offer a 100% refund* on premiums paid towards your travel insurance policy in case of a visa rejection for any reason.
Check for Credentials
The insurance company you choose needs to be approved by the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) and must be listed as a general insurer on the IRDAI website. For example, you will find IndusInd General Insurance (formerly known as Reliance General Insurance) listed on their website. Avoid buying travel insurance from unlisted insurance companies.
Policy Exclusions
Carefully read through the policy exclusions to understand what is not covered. This will help you avoid surprises when filing a claim. We provide clear and transparent policy terms to ensure you are fully aware of what is and isnāt covered. You can check them here.

Passport Loss: Original bills/receipts of costs for a new/fresh passport.

If youāre travelling overseas to live and work there long-term, then no. Our travel insurance plans cover a maximum of 182 days and can be extended up to 365 days*. We recommend buying our travel insurance for initial short trips and then switching over to a local health insurance provider once youāre settled abroad.
If you travel overseas frequently for work, we recommend purchasing our annual multi-trip travel insurance plan. It covers 30-45 days in total* and offers a worldwide coverage option that covers multiple destinations, so you have coverage no matter what country you travel to.
