The Schengen Treaty is an agreement whereby we are obliged to obtain travel insurance if we are going to visit specific countries. We always recommend getting travel insurance for any destination we are traveling to, however, in some cases, we can only travel if we purchase one. See below for some details about this agreement.
Also known as the Schengen Agreement, this is an agreement between European countries that imposes certain requirements on tourists from other countries. If we are going to travel to any European country, it is required that we have travel insurance with a coverage of at least €30,000 to guarantee coverage for medical assistance in case of illness, accident or funeral repatriation, so that we travelers can cover any unforeseen circumstances.
This treaty allows the free movement of people within the signatory countries, that is, it is not necessary to present a passport at the borders. But even if they do not have this control in the border region, it is necessary to have a legal identification document for citizens residing in member countries.
The countries included in the treaty are:
Germany
Austria
Belgium
Denmark
Slovakia
Slovenia
Spain
Estonia
Finland
France
Greece
Hungary
Iceland
Italy
Liechtenstein
Latvia
Lithuania
Luxembourg
Malta
Norway
Netherlands
Poland
Portugal
Czech republic
Sweden
Switzerland.
In other words, by purchasing your travel insurance for the Schengen Treaty, we can have free circulation in all these countries, thus guaranteeing our security. In addition, we will be able to enjoy our trip even more, as with the ease of crossing borders, we save time and get to know even more amazing destinations.
Who wouldn't want that peace of mind? I do! Is that you?
