International Travel Insurance: Quote and Travel Protected
Why is international travel insurance essential?
When planning any adventure outside your country, purchasing international travel insurance is not an additional expense, but a fundamental investment. Protecting your health and finances is crucial in the face of unforeseen events that may arise far from home. Travel insurance provides you with peace of mind, knowing that you will be covered in complex situations. International travel insurance with Baraglo can cost from $3.19 USD per day, offering medical assistance coverage of up to $20,000 USD (specific applications of this plan).
Imagine suffering a minor accident or getting sick in a foreign country. Medical costs in many destinations, especially in the United States, can amount to thousands of dollars in a matter of hours. Good insurance guarantees savings against unforeseen events, covering consultation expenses, hospitalization, and even surgeries. Cost comparison: The price of one night of hospitalization in the United States can exceed $2,000 USD, while travel insurance with $50,000 USD coverage costs only $5.29 USD per day with Baraglo.
Furthermore, and just as important, for certain destinations, travel insurance is a mandatory requirement. A clear example is the Schengen Area in Europe, where a policy with a specific minimum coverage is required for entry. Finally, you will have 24/7 assistance in your language, allowing you to resolve any incident with the support of trained professionals, regardless of the time or place.
Key coverages of good international travel insurance
When choosing your international travel insurance, it is essential to understand the coverages that offer you comprehensive protection. A complete Baraglo plan is designed to take care of you at every stage of your adventure.
Medical assistance for accident or illness: This is the most important coverage. It includes everything from an emergency medical consultation to hospitalization, surgical interventions, and the provision of medication. Abroad, even a flu can be an economic headache without this protection.
Trip cancellation or interruption: Protect your investment. If, for covered reasons (such as a serious illness, death of a direct family member, or an unexpected event), you must cancel your trip before starting or interrupt it once begun, this coverage reimburses you for non-recoverable expenses for flights, hotels, and tours. See our trip cancellation coverage for more details.
Lost or delayed luggage: Traveling without your belongings is a nightmare. This coverage financially compensates you for the definitive loss of your luggage. In case of delay, it covers basic necessity expenses so you can buy essential items while you wait for your suitcase to appear.
Medical and funeral repatriation: In the most extreme situations, this coverage ensures medical transfer to your country of origin in case of a serious accident or illness requiring prolonged treatment in your country, or funeral transfer in case of death. It is invaluable support for you and your family.
Civil liability: Last but not least, civil liability protects you in case you accidentally cause damage to third parties or their property during your trip. This prevents legal problems and unexpected expenses in an unknown country.
These coverages are the pillar of robust travel insurance, ensuring you are prepared for any eventuality.

At Baraglo, we understand that every traveler has different needs and budgets. Therefore, we have designed a range of international travel insurance plans that adapt to different adventures, offering the best relationship between coverage and price.

The Standard Plan ($4.99/day) is the most popular choice for most LATAM travelers, offering solid coverage of USD 35,000, more than enough for Europe and South America. If your destination includes the United States or countries with particularly high medical costs, the Essential Plus Plan ($5.29/day) with USD 50,000 coverage will provide you with superior peace of mind. For those looking for maximum security, the Premium Plan ($8.99/day) raises coverage to USD 100,000, ideal for complex or long-term trips.
Remember that for travelers over 75, a surcharge of +50% is applied to the plan cost. With Baraglo, you have the flexibility to choose the protection that best suits your adventure.
Insurance for Europe and Schengen visa requirements
Traveling to Europe is a dream for many, but it is crucial to know the entry requirements, especially for the Schengen Area. This agreement, which covers 27 European countries, requires international travelers to have travel insurance for Europe that covers, at a minimum, 30,000 euros (approximately USD 30,000-33,000 depending on the exchange rate) in medical assistance, including repatriation expenses.
At Baraglo, we offer plans that not only meet, but exceed this requirement, ensuring your entry without setbacks and your protection throughout your stay. Our recommended plans for the Schengen Area include:
Standard Plan (USD 35,000 coverage): Perfectly meets the requirement, ideal for most travelers.
Essential Plus Plan (USD 50,000 coverage): Offers an extra margin of security for a small difference in the daily price.
Premium Plan (USD 100,000 coverage): For those seeking maximum protection on their European trip.
It is important to note that, for Europe, we do not recommend Baraglo's Basic Plan, as its coverage may not be sufficient for entry requirements, although it is valid for other destinations.
Additionally, we have developed a specific option for certain LATAM citizens. The Schengen Visa Plan ($2.99/day), with USD 30,000 coverage, is designed exclusively for Dominicans, Ecuadorians, and Bolivians who need to process a Schengen visa. This plan meets all consular requirements, offering an economical and direct solution to obtain your visa without complications. For other LATAM citizens who do not need a visa for the Schengen Area, we recommend our Europe Plan, which offers superior coverage.
To travel to the Schengen Area in Europe, insurance with a minimum coverage of 30,000 euros is required. Baraglo's Standard Plan offers USD 35,000 coverage, meeting and exceeding this requirement for only $4.99 USD per day. Baraglo's Schengen Visa Plan is specifically designed for citizens of the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and Bolivia who need to process this visa, fulfilling all consular requirements for $2.99 USD daily.
How much does international travel insurance cost?
The cost of international travel insurance is a common concern, but at Baraglo, we strive to offer transparency and competitive rates. The final price of your international travel insurance policy is determined by several key factors that directly influence coverage and associated risk:
Destination: Traveling to the United States, for example, where medical costs are extremely high, usually implies slightly more expensive insurance than a trip to a South American destination.
Trip duration: The longer you spend away, the greater the exposure to possible unforeseen events, so the daily cost is multiplied by the number of days.
Traveler's age: With increasing age, health risks can increase. Therefore, for those over 75, we apply a +50% surcharge.
Selected coverage level: Our plans (Essential Plus, Premium, Europe Plan, etc.) offer different insured amounts per day and additional services, directly impacting the price.
To give you an idea, a Standard Plan for a 10-day trip to Europe would cost you only $49.90 USD (10 days x $4.99/day). If you opted for the Essential Plus Plan for that same trip, it would be $52.90 USD. This price transparency per day makes it easy to project your expenditures.
It is essential to compare the cost of insurance with the potential cost of an emergency abroad. Comprehensive Baraglo insurance costs less than a single medical consultation in many countries, not to mention hospitalization. Investing in your peace of mind and security with Baraglo is a smart decision that protects your adventure and your wallet from unexpected expenses.

Frequently asked questions
Is it mandatory to purchase international travel insurance?
It depends on the destination. For the Schengen Area in Europe, it is mandatory, and insurance with a minimum coverage of 30,000 euros is required. For other countries like the USA, it is not mandatory but highly recommended due to the high costs of medical care. Not having this insurance in the USA could mean hospital bills of thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
What is the best international travel insurance?
The best insurance is one that adapts to your trip and needs. A plan like Baraglo's Essential Plus is excellent for most trips where robust coverage of USD 50,000 is required, especially for destinations like the United States. For most destinations in Europe and South America, a Baraglo Standard plan is ideal, while Premium is perfect for travelers seeking maximum coverage or visiting destinations with very expensive healthcare or engaging in adventure activities.
When should I buy my travel insurance?
Ideally, you should buy it right after booking your flights and accommodation. This way, you will be covered against a possible trip cancellation, protecting your investment from the first moment. For example, if an unforeseen event forces you to cancel your trip before departure, you could recover non-refundable expenses according to the terms of your policy.
Does Baraglo travel insurance cover COVID-19?
Yes, all our international travel insurance plans include medical coverage in case you contract COVID-19 during your trip. This covers hospitalization expenses, treatment, and medications according to the limits and conditions of your policy, providing you with additional peace of mind in these times.
