Portugal is Offering COVID-19 Travel Insurance

In an attempt to boost tourism and attract travellers, Portugal is now offering a COVID-19 travel insurance in order to ensure safe and secure travelling. The insurance comes as a major step to boost the tourism sector.

The initiative is promoted by RNA Assistance Insurance, and can be availed from a dedicated website. It provides medical, surgical, pharmaceutical and hospital expenses associated with COVID-19.The insurance also takes care of the expenses of cancellation, interruption, or extension of travel due to the pandemic. 

This insurance is another Visit Portugal initiative step promoted by RNA Assistance Insurance to ensure travellers that they can come and visit the country without worrying.

It is aimed at reviving the international market and raise awareness of the security of the destination alongside other joint initiatives such as the Clean & Safe Seal and the renewal of the Portugal Health Passport which is available to all who visit Portugal, and now covers COVID-19 tests as well.

This Health Passport also grants access to high quality urgent health care or check ups at previously fixed prices at different hospitals and medical facilities in the network of hospitals and clinics of CUF, Hospital da Luz, HPA Saúde and Lusíadas, throughout the national territory.
