The TATA AIG Travel Guard travel insurance offered by Tata AIG General Insurance Company Ltd offers coverage for medical expenses related to COVID19. Coronavirus related coverage for every insured is available up to the limits mentioned in the Policy Schedule for expenses incurred due to sudden and unexpected Sickness or Accident arising when insured is outside the Republic of India.

The number of countries that insist on travel medical insurance upon arrival had been increasing over the years even before the COVID pandemic, however this list of countries is now growing rapidly.

This will hugely impact many Indian tourists, corporate executives and students who have deferred their foreign trips due to Covid-19 but will need to travel overseas soon.
Along with proof of travel medical insurance many countries are also implementing Covid testing documents while allowing visitors to their countries. See of the countries that mandate travel insurance with COVID coverage for entry include (this list is fast changing). Schengen countries, Thailand, Dubai, Russia, Qatar, Cambodia....
