May I See Your Medical Insurance Card?

You’re traveling to a foreign country and you have your passport an appropriate visa. Right? It’s probably in your wallet.

You have insurance. Right? Where’s your proof of medical insurance?

When preparing your wallet for traveling, did you clean out your insurance card and leave it at home?

If so…not a good idea.

Did you realize more countries are requiring you to show proof of medical insurance before you enter the country? Right now, Iceland, Ecuador, Turkey, the UAE, Norway, and Switzerland are ones that want to see your insurance cards.

What do you do if you don’t have it? You can buy a policy right there. Or, you can go home.

Neither is a good option. Carry your insurance cards.
