“overseas travel insurance” is cheap and simple.
1)It covers :illness, baggage loss or delay, passport loss, public liability etc.
2) It can be purchased from any general insurance company (the same company that insures houses & cars)
3) As you fill the forms and pay the nominal money, this insurance is handed over to you within 15 minutes
4) Even if embassies do not ask for it, you MUST travel after taking this insurance
5) The insurance is for number of days that you are abroad so it is very less premium.
