Choosing the right travel insurance for Russia
Russia is the largest country in the world by the area of its territory. The distances are important between each city or country you would like to visit and you will almost inevitably have to take the train (Trans-Siberian, Transmongolian for example), much safer than any trip by car on your own. From Moscow to St. Petersburg, quintessential Tsar cities, to Vladivostok, from a trek on Lake Baikal to a cruise on the Volga, your Russia Travel Insurance needs will not be the same.
In any case, check the guarantees covered by Russia Travel Insurance that you plan to take out and the situations that trigger these guarantees. For example: will you benefit from legal assistance in the event of a problem with the authorities who can be very picky? Will you be compensated in the event of theft or loss of your official papers? Can you cancel your trip if you or a loved one suffers from a health problem? Also check the limits of these guarantees, in particular for medical expenses insurance, the applicable deductibles without forgetting the exclusions.
Our travel insurance covers you when you travel in accordance with official recommendations issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the government of your destination country.
Thus, will be covered:
Your medical expenses if you are the victim of an accident or fall ill, including Covid-19 (Short Stay Travel Insurance Forms 1, 2 and 3, Multi-Travel Insurance, Student Insurance Abroad)
