When applying for a Canada visitor visa or Canada tourist visa, you’ll want to make sure you have travel insurance that covers everything you might need.
- What Does Travel Insurance Cover?
The main things that travel insurance Canada covers include:
- Emergency Medical Care: This is essential if you need hospitalization during your trip.
- Trip Cancellation/Interruption: If your trip gets canceled or you need to return home early due to an emergency, your costs are covered.
- Lost or Stolen Luggage: Reimbursement for personal items lost during travel.
- Specialized Coverage
Specialized coverage, like for cancer patients or those traveling while pregnant, may require additional coverage. Make sure to check with your insurance provider. - How Much Coverage Do You Need?
For a typical trip, a minimum of $50,000 in medical coverage is recommended. However, if you’re a senior or have pre-existing conditions, consider higher coverage.
