FAQs

What is travel insurance and why do I need it?

Travel insurance is a type of protection that covers financial risks and emergencies that might occur while you are traveling away from home. It typically includes coverage for trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, travel delays, and other unexpected issues. We strongly encourage you to take out travel insurance for any unexpected emergencies you may encounter during your trip to South Korea.

While specific coverage can vary between policies, common features include:

  • Medical coverage: Medical treatment if you become ill or injured while traveling.
  • Trip cancellation/interruption: Reimbursement for prepaid, non-refundable trip costs if you have to cancel or cut short your trip due to covered reasons such as illness or emergencies.
  • Lost or delayed luggage: Compensation for baggage that is lost, stolen, or delayed.
  • Travel delays: Costs for additional accommodation or meals if your trip is delayed by events such as severe weather.
