What’s Covered Under TATA AIG International Student Travel Insurance?

Our Overseas Travel Insurance Policy Will Help You Take Care Of A Number Of Situations!

custom list

Medical Covers

We can’t think of anything worse than having to get emergency medical treatment while you’re abroad. You can rest assured that our overseas student travel insurance plan will help you deal with:

Medical Emergencies

Your international student travel insurance policy will help you deal with the financial implications that come with meeting with an accident or falling ill, including being diagnosed with COVID-19, while you’re abroad. The policy will cover everything, right from a regular illness that requires hospitalisation to dental emergencies and even fatalities.

Emergency Evacuation

If the Assistance Company determines that you need to be moved to another hospital or brought back to India for better medical treatment, your student travel insurance policy will help cover the cost of the evacuation.

Continuing Treatment

Your student travel insurance policy will help take care of medical expenses that arise due to the same injury or illness for which a valid claim has already been settled. This continued coverage applies after you are brought back to India.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment

We don’t want to think about it, but a felonious assault on a student can sometimes lead to accidental death or dismemberment. In such cases, we will provide coverage for the loss if it occurs within 365 days from the date of the accident. We will also take care of the cost of repatriating the insured individual’s remains to India.

Maternity Benefit

After a waiting period of 10 months, your international student travel insurance policy will help you take care of inpatient maternity treatment costs as well as the cost of one month of post-natal care.

Childcare Benefits

Looking after an infant is difficult. If your child is between the ages of 7 and 90 days and is hospitalised for two or more days, we’ll help you deal with the costs.

Cancer Screening

Your health is always our topmost priority. If a qualified physician recommends cancer screening or mammography tests while you are studying abroad, we’ll help cover the cost. However, screenings done as part of a routine check-up will not be covered.

Physiotherapy

The cost of any medically necessary physiotherapy that you require after an accident will be taken care of by your student travel insurance policy.

custom list

Baggage Covers

Landing up somewhere without your personal belongings can be a harrowing experience. We make it easier to manage with these covers:

Delayed Checked-In Baggage

Almost everybody has a story about a time when they travelled, and their luggage was unnecessarily delayed. If this happens and you have our student travel insurance policy, you can rest easy. Your overseas student travel insurance plan will help cover the cost of any necessary personal items that you need to purchase until your bag can reach you.

Lost Checked-In Baggage

Having your bag delayed is one thing, but if your bag is lost or stolen, managing the situation can be incredibly difficult. The best part is, our student trip insurance policy can help you deal with this issue. Depending on the travel insurance policy terms, we will help reimburse you for the items in your luggage.

custom list

Academic and Financial Security

Travelling to study abroad can be an exhilarating experience. You can enjoy stress-free semesters abroad with our travel insurance policy that will provide cover for:

Sponsor Protection

We understand that an unfortunate accident could mean that your sponsor, or the person who helps pay for your fees, is no longer able to do so. 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.

Study Interruption

If you happen to be hospitalised for more than a month due to a covered illness or injury, or have to travel back to India because an immediate family member passed away, you don’t have to worry about losing out on your tuition fee. Your student travel insurance policy will help reimburse you for any unused tuition if you have to interrupt your studies.

Compassionate Visit

If you’re hospitalised for more than seven consecutive days, we’ll take care of the round-trip cost for an immediate family member to come and take care of you. Similarly, if your parent, spouse, or child is hospitalised for seven days or meets with an unfortunate death, we will cover the cost of your round-trip travel to India.

custom list

Journey Covers

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 duplicate or new passport made.

Missed Flights

Bad weather, a strike of some kind or equipment failure could mean that you miss your departure or connecting flights. If this is the case, you don’t have to worry. Our international student travel insurance policy will help you deal with any additional expenses you may incur while trying to get home.

Hijack Help

Our international student travel insurance policy will offer something known as a distress allowance in case the flight that you’re travelling on is hijacked.

Personal Liability

Accidents can happen at any time under any circumstance. If you happen to be involved in an accident where somebody else is harmed or injured, it could cost you quite dearly. Our overseas student travel insurance policy will help cover damage caused to any third-party individual or property while you’re abroad.

Fraudulent Charges

Most often, our loved ones will tell us to be careful with our belongings while travelling abroad. In case your payment card is lost or stolen, we will cover the unauthorised charges you are responsible for, up to 12 hours prior to your first reporting the incident.

Bail Bond

If you’re wrongfully detained or arrested by a foreign government, your student travel insurance plan will help you pay for the bail bond.

*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 situations are beyond our control. Here’s a look at a few instances where we may be unable to offer coverage:

Journey Exclusions

  • Missed flights due to reasons you were already aware of before purchasing the policy will not be covered.

  • Missed flights due to your failure to allow sufficient time to reach the departure point are excluded.

Medical Exclusions

  • If you have travelled against the advice of your doctor, we will not be able to provide overseas student travel insurance cover.

  • If you are already receiving or are on a waiting list to receive a specified treatment, the student travel insurance cover will not be applicable.

  • The medical costs for treating self-inflicted injuries or sexually transmitted diseases will not be covered.

  • Medical expenses arising from a mental or nervous disorder will not be covered unless specifically mentioned in the policy.

  • Participation in adventure sports, such as skydiving, scuba diving, or mountain climbing, for which you are untrained, will not be covered. This exclusion does not apply to injuries resulting from intercollegiate sports.

Baggage Exclusions

  • Loss of baggage will not be covered in cases where the items have been shipped separately or before your travel date.

  • Baggage delay on your journey while returning to India will not be covered.

Other Exclusions

  • Damages or losses caused by war, acts of terrorism, nuclear reactions, radiation, or radioactive contamination will not be covered.

  • Any losses arising from the influence of alcohol or drug abuse will not be covered unless the insured is not directly responsible for the accident.

Please refer to policy wordings for a complete list of benefits and exclusions.

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.

A travel insurance policy offering the best health insurance for students studying abroad 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.

If you decide to cancel the policy within this period and no claim has been made, you will receive a refund of the premium, subject to a cancellation fee.

What is evacuation and repatriation coverage?

Evacuation and repatriation coverage provides financial support during medical or fatal emergencies. It covers the cost of transporting an injured or sick student using medically-equipped flights to a hospital or back to India for further treatment.

Do we have student holiday insurance?

No, we offer a student travel insurance policy that provides financial coverage for students planning to pursue education abroad. If you are looking for leisure or holidays, you can explore our international travel insurance plans.
