Student Travel Insurance

Follow Your Dreams, Safely!

Every year, thousands of young Indians decide to leave the nest while pursuing their education. You might want to travel to America, Germany or the UK to follow your passion and get the education you want. But, studying abroad can be expensive. Apart from your tuition fee and cost of living, it’s entirely possible that a sickness or unpredictable situation ends up burning a massive hole in your pocket. To keep you and your family’s finances safe, it’s always best to get student travel insurance before heading off to broaden your mind.

TATA AIG’s student travel insurance has been built keeping the unique needs of every student in mind. Apart from providing cover against lost baggage and medical emergencies, like other travel insurance policies, your student travel insurance will also reimburse you if you’re forced to interrupt your studies due to a medical emergency, you can compare travel insurance plans to pick the one that suits you the most, in terms of coverage amount & premium. What’s more, our plans can be customised so you only pay for the days when you’re out of India instead of for the whole year.

Offering safety, security and care-free travel, a student travel insurance policy is a must-have in every Indian student’s carry-on!

*Tata AIG offers coverage for medical expenses related to COVID – 19 when the insured is outside India. Policy T&C apply

There are a number of difficult situations that you might have to deal with while studying abroad. You could end up terminally ill or have to be hospitalised for treatment for more than a month.

If you end up unable to complete a semester for which you’ve already paid due to these unfortunate circumstances, your student travel insurance policy will help reimburse you for unused tuition fee.

This can leave you in an uncertain position and may force you to withdraw from your course. With our student travel insurance policy, you don’t have to worry. We’ll help you pay the tuition for the rest of your course so you can continue to follow your dreams.

Lost Passport

Obtaining a new passport in a foreign country isn’t always easy. Your international student travel insurance policy will help you with the necessary and reasonable expenses that are attached to getting a new passport made.

The policy will cover everything right from a regular illness that requires hospitalisation to dental emergencies and even fatalities.

*Kindly check the policy wordings for a complete understanding of the product offerings, inclusions and exclusions.

What’s Not Covered By TATA AIG's Student Travel Insurance Plans?

Unfortunately, Some Things Are Out Of Our Hands. Here’s A Look At A Few Situations Where We’ll Be Unable To Help:

Journey Exclusions

  • If your flight is delayed due to a reason that you were already aware of before you purchased the policy, we will not be able to help.
  • Participation in adventure sports, like skydiving, scuba diving, or mountain climbing will not be covered under our international student travel insurance plans.
  • We will not entertain refund requests if you’ve missed your flight due to a local protest or agitation.
  • Any losses experienced while drunk or under the influence of other drugs will not be covered.
  • If you cancel your trip because a pet is ill or passes away, your student travel insurance policy will not cover the cost of cancellation or refunds. Instead, you can reschedule your trip and travel once you’re ready.

  • If you have travelled against the advice of your doctor, we will not be able to provide you with overseas student travel insurance cover.
  • If you suffer from a complication or require assistance due to a pre-existing health condition, the medical bills will not be covered.

When Is Student Travel Insurance Required?

Deciding to go abroad to further your education is not an easy decision to make. As a student, you’ll likely be travelling and living alone in a foreign country for the first time in your life. You may not have any family or support where you’re heading. As a parent, letting your child leave the nest and move to a foreign country is a scary thought. You won’t be there to help take care of them and any number of things could go wrong. This is precisely why student travel insurance is a must. Let’s take a look at a few instances in which a good overseas student travel insurance policy will come in handy:

custom list

For Admission

Depending on where you’re headed, you may have to purchase a travel insurance policy to get the requisite visa and confirm your seat in your chosen college. Several educational institutions today require students to have student travel insurance so that they’re safeguarded from all kinds of issues in the future.

custom list

In Medical Emergencies

Getting quality medical treatment in a foreign country could lead to hefty medical bills. Often, students may not be able to get the healthcare they need without a good insurance policy. This is why student travel insurance is so crucial. It will help you get the quality treatment you need in case of an emergency. The policy will look after the cost, leaving you free to focus on your health.

custom list

When You Need Family

Some medical issues are more serious than others. If you’re sick or injured and hospitalised for over a week, we’re sure you don’t want to weather that storm alone. With a student travel insurance plan, you won’t have to. The policy will ensure that a family member can come and be with you until you’re discharged. The reverse is also true. If a family member is hospitalised for a long time and you need to be with them, your student travel insurance policy will pay for you to go home.

custom list

When Your Studies Are Interrupted

We may not want to think about it, but it’s entirely possible that a critical or terminal illness may need you to be hospitalised for over a month. In more severe cases, you may have to suspend your course entirely. Since you pay the fee for the entire semester in advance, you could end up losing money while dealing with a difficult time. When you have a student travel insurance plan, you won’t have to worry about losing out on the fees you’ve paid. We’ll reimburse you for the fee you’ve paid in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Policy Related

Service Related

What is a free-look period?

The free-look period is a 15-day buffer during which you can go through all the policy documents and decide to cancel the policy without having to pay a cancellation fee. The period starts on the day the policy papers are received by the insured individual.

What is evacuation and repatriation coverage?

Evacuation and repatriation coverage is helpful in times of medical and fatal emergencies. Under this cover, our international student travel insurance policy will help take care of the cost of using medically-equipped flights to transport the injured individual or repatriate the mortal remains of the insured back to India.

Is there an age limit for the student travel insurance policy?

Yes. To be eligible to purchase a student travel insurance policy, the insured must be between the ages of 16 and 35.

What situations will be covered under compassionate travel?

There are only two circumstances in which compassionate travel is allowed. If you are unwell and hospitalised for over seven consecutive days and a family member needs to visit you, it will be compassionate travel. If your parent, spouse or child is hospitalised back home for over seven consecutive days or if one of them passes away, that will also be covered.

What happens if I fall ill and am unable to continue with my studies?

In situations where you need to be hospitalised for over a month or cannot continue your education due to a covered illness or injury, your student travel insurance policy will reimburse you for any tuition fees that you’ve already paid to the educational institution.

Will I get cover for pre-existing illnesses?

Sorry, no, your student travel insurance policy will not cover the costs associated with treatment of a pre-existing illness unless it’s a life-threatening situation.

Does my policy cover dental treatment?

Absolutely! If you require a dental surgery to treat acute pain from a sound natural tooth, your policy will help take care of the cost.

What happens if my claim is rejected?

There are a number of situations in which claims against your overseas student travel insurance policy might be rejected. If this happens, we will inform you of the reason why your travel insurance claim has been rejected. You are free to raise another ticket if you’d like us to revaluate our decision.

How do I raise a claim against my student travel insurance policy?

To make a claim quickly, you can call the helpline number 1 800 266 7780 or send an SMS to 5616181. If you’ve purchased your policy through an agent, you could also call them and inform them about the claim. Make sure you have your policy number on hand for a smooth claims journey.
