Travel Insurance

The Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Singapore informs, that since 1 December 2020, the conditions that must be met by travel medical insurance for foreigners applying for a national visa have changed.

Travel medical insurance must meet the following requirements:

- provides for the insurer's liability for the amount of insurance of at least 30 000 EUR;

- is valid for the entire period of the planned stay of the foreigner in the territory of the Republic of Poland;

- covers all expenses that may arise during the foreigner's stay in this territory in the case of:

  • necessary return travel for medical reasons,
  • urgent medical assistance needed,
  • emergency hospital treatment,
  • death,

and the insurer:

- reimburses the costs of health services provided to the insured person directly to the entity providing these benefits - on the basis of the invoice issued,

- provides a 24/7 emergency assistance, that accepts claims covered by the policy.

If the insurer has no registered office or branch in Poland, or countries belonging to the EU, EFTA, EEA or Switzerland, in accordance with the Article 3 point 4 of the Act of March 6, 2018 on the principles of participation of foreign entrepreneurs and other foreign persons in business, it must meet additional conditions:

- publish the results of the audit of its activities; the audit should be performed by a recognized international audit body and indicate the actual possibility of satisfying claims due to entities providing health services in the territory of the Republic of Poland;

- publish (at least every six months) data on the sum of collected premiums and the size of payments in a given type of insurance.

The list of insurers and the insurance policies that meet the conditions referred to in the Act of 12 December 2013 on foreigners is available below.

We recommend you to contact your employer/university about the proper insurance. Some of the insuring companies registered in Poland, which can offer a proper insurance policy can be found below:
