What is Travel Insurance for Germany, and do you need it?
From historic cities packed with culture to stunning mountains and countryside. Germany is a large, diverse and exciting country for travellers. But Germany Travel Insurance should be top of your list as you prepare:
- A Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) will give you access to some essential state medical care at the same price as locals. However, there are many things it won’t cover, including medical repatriation. ABTA says an air ambulance from the EU to the UK could cost you £21,750 to £26,100
- Travel Insurance isn’t just for medical costs. 27% of claims in a Which? survey were for cancellations, while 25% were for transport delays, and 21%, lost possessions
- Thefts, especially in German tourist hotspots, are common. Germany is the fourth most likely European country for visitors to be pickpocketed

While many of the most common reasons for claiming on a policy are lost belongings, travel delays and cancellation.
