What Is International Travel Insurance and Why Is It Essential?
International travel insurance is a policy specifically designed to protect you against unforeseen medical emergencies and financial losses while you are outside your home country. Unlike your local health insurance, which generally does not cover you abroad, this type of insurance is your economic and logistical safety net. Think of it not as an expense, but as a crucial investment in your safety and peace of mind.
The main reason to purchase it is simple: medical costs abroad can be astronomical. An emergency room visit, an unexpected hospitalization, or the need for medical evacuation in countries like the United States, Canada, or even Europe, can lead to bills of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. Unlike domestic health insurance, which generally does not cover you abroad, international travel insurance is specifically designed to handle medical emergencies anywhere in the world.
Beyond the financial aspect, good insurance gives you access to 24/7 assistance. Do you need a doctor who speaks your language in Tokyo? Don't know which hospital to go to in Orlando? A team of experts is available to guide you, coordinate the necessary medical care, and manage payments directly with providers, so you only have to worry about recovering. This peace of mind is invaluable, allowing you to enjoy your trip with the certainty that you are backed in any eventuality.

How to Choose the Right Coverage for Your Destination
Choosing the right plan is essential to travel with confidence. Your destination is the most important factor to consider when selecting the coverage amount. At Baraglo, we have simplified this so you can make the best decision without complications and understand the reason behind each recommendation.
Travel to Europe and the Schengen Area
If you travel to any of the countries in the Schengen Area, it is mandatory to have travel insurance that meets certain requirements. The main one is a minimum medical coverage of 30,000 euros (approximately $33,000 USD). It is important to note that our Basic Plan, with $20,000 of coverage, does not meet this requirement and should not be used for these destinations.
For travel to Europe's Schengen Area, the minimum required medical coverage is €30,000. Baraglo's Standard Plan offers $35,000 USD of coverage for only $4.99/day, fully meeting this requirement. This plan not only allows you to enter without problems but also provides an additional margin of protection. If you are looking for even more security, our Essential Plus ($50,000) and Premium ($100,000) plans are also excellent options. You can find more details in our guide to travel insurance for Europe.
Travel to the United States and Canada
The United States is known for having the most expensive healthcare system in the world. A simple accident, like a fracture, can result in a bill of more than $30,000 USD, and several days of hospitalization can easily exceed $100,000 USD. Traveling to the U.S. or Canada without robust medical coverage is a financial risk that no one should take.
For this reason, we strongly recommend opting for our higher coverage plans. Baraglo offers plans with up to $100,000 USD in medical coverage (Premium Plan at $8.99/day), recommended for destinations with high healthcare costs like the USA and Canada. The Essential Plus plan, with $50,000 of coverage, offers an excellent starting point, while the Premium plan, with $100,000, gives you maximum peace of mind to face any medical eventuality without putting your assets at risk.
Travel to Asia, Latin America, and other regions
For most countries in Asia, the rest of Latin America, Africa, and Oceania, medical costs tend to be more moderate. In these cases, our Basic and Standard plans are usually more than sufficient. The Basic Plan ($3.19/day) with $20,000 of coverage is an incredibly economical and effective option to protect you from the most common incidents. If you prefer a little more leeway, the Standard Plan ($4.99/day) with $35,000 of coverage is a perfect balance between cost and protection.
Schengen Visa Requirement for Specific Nationalities
If you are a citizen of the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, or Bolivia, you need to apply for a visa to enter the Schengen Area, and one of the essential requirements is to present valid travel insurance. For these cases, we have created the Schengen Visa Plan ($2.99/day). This plan is specifically designed to meet all consular requirements, offering $30,000 of coverage at an unbeatable price to facilitate your process. For other Latin American citizens traveling visa-exempt, the recommended plan is still our Europe Plan (Standard). Learn more about Schengen Visa insurance on our blog.
