Protect yourself against the unexpected and enjoy peace of mind during your stay.
Adequate travel insurance is an essential part of planning your trip to Malta. It not only safeguards you against unexpected costs but also allows you to focus fully on your studies and experiences while abroad. With the right policy in place, you can feel confident knowing you are covered in case of medical emergencies, travel delays, cancellations, or loss of belongings.
Why Travel Insurance Matters
Students are strongly advised to obtain travel insurance when coming to Malta. This ensures protection against cancellation fees, medical emergencies, lost baggage, or other unexpected situations. With a suitable policy, you can quickly recover costs and avoid unnecessary stress during your stay.
Tip: Carry both paper and digital copies of your insurance documents and emergency contacts.
Recommended Coverage Types
- Health insurance valid across the EU or Malta-specific cover
- Trip cancellation and interruption
- Accident insurance
- Cover for lost or stolen valuables
Students from EU countries should carry an EHIC or GHIC card. Non-EU students should ensure their insurance specifically covers Malta.
Choosing and Using Insurance
Compare policies carefully and look for providers offering 24/7 multilingual support, straightforward claims procedures, and clear coverage limits. If you need to make a claim, notify your insurer immediately, keep receipts, and follow instructions. Store digital copies on your phone for easy access.
Tip: Some credit cards include travel insurance — check before purchasing extra cover.
