Travel Insurance That Meets Visa Rules
Many visas, Schengen visas among them, need travel medical cover that meets set rules for the whole trip. We arrange policies with licensed insurers to match your destination, dates and travellers, and explain what is and is not covered. Tell us about your trip for a free first consultation and we will call you back.

Questions people ask
For some visas, such as Schengen visas, it is a formal requirement. For others it is strongly advised rather than required. We tell you which applies to your trip.
Policies are issued by licensed insurers, not by VisaWala. We help you choose the cover, arrange it and check that it meets the visa rules.
Many policies exclude them or cover them only if they are declared. Always declare your health history honestly, and we will explain the exclusions before you buy.
Some insurers allow a cancellation or refund if the visa is refused, usually on proof of the refusal. Terms differ, so we confirm them before you buy.
Often, yes. We arrange a family or group policy, or individual policies for each traveller, depending on the insurer's terms and what each visa file needs.
