How to buy travel insurance for a Greece visa application (Schengen visa) — which type should you choose?
For your travel route, select Thailand - Schengen or Thailand - Worldwide. Do not purchase a policy specifying only a particular country name, as it cannot be used to apply for a Schengen visa.
What is the required minimum coverage amount?
Choose a policy with coverage of at least 30,000 EUR for the following 4 risks:
1. Accidental death, loss of limbs, sight, or total permanent disability: minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR
2. Medical expenses (maximum actual payment): minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR
3. Emergency medical evacuation or repatriation to Thailand: minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR
4. Repatriation of remains: minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR
Coverage duration:
Starts from the day you depart Thailand until the day you arrive back at an airport in Thailand.
For example:
Departure: Depart Thailand on June 1, but arrive at destination airport on June 2.
You must buy insurance starting from June 1
Return: Depart Greece on August 1, but arrive in Bangkok, Thailand on August 2.
You must buy insurance valid until August 2
Additional recommendation:
We recommend purchasing from an insurance company that offers a refund if your visa application is rejected.
