AXA’s Travel Insurance options for those living in France

AXA Travel Insurance offers different types of insurance policies to best meet the needs of travellers living in France:

→ Short-stay travel insurance.

Perfect if you are travelling abroad for less than three months. Depending on the options you choose, it provides:

Medical expense coverage up to 1,000,000 € (including in case of Covid)
24/7 remote medical assistance and repatriation
Cancellation or interruption insurance (including in case of Covid)
Lost or damaged luggage insurance up to 2,000 €
Search and rescue costs covered up to 10,000 €
Flight delay or cancellation insurance

→ Multi-trip travel insurance for frequent travellers.

This travel insurance is the best choice for people living in France who undertake frequent stays abroad during the course of one year. Instead of subscribing each time they organise a getaway, their annual subscription covers their travel insurance needs for the entire year.

Same key guarantees as the short-stay insurance but you only need to subscribe once!

→ Student travel insurance.

For students who want to perfect their education or follow an internship abroad. It covers their insurance needs for the duration of their stay, up to 12 months. Its key guarantees include:

Emergency medical expenses abroad covered up to 160,000 €.
Civil liability up to 4,500,000 €
24/7 AXA medical assistance

→ Ski Travel insurance.

This insurance is tailor-made for those who can’t get enough of the mountains either as a yearly traditional trip or for the real fans who head to the ski pistes in France or abroad as soon as the first flake drops. As pleasant as it may be, winter activities are expensive and often quite risky. Injuries are frequent and equipment can easily be damaged.

AXA SKI TRAVEL INSURANCE offers:

Compensation of up to 6,000 € in case of interruption of your stay (including due to Covid)
Up to 15,300 € search and rescue costs on and off-piste.
A replacement driver for your car in case of inability to take the wheel.

Refunding of ski passes and lessons following medical contraindication
Personal equipment reimbursed up to 400€ in case of accidental damage

→ Schengen Travel Insurance.

Even though French nationals and residents don’t need a Schengen visa and thus its compulsory Travel Insurance to visit countries of the Schengen area, it might still come in useful to subscribe to this extra coverage in case of unexpected medical expenses or other mishaps.

Bear in mind, however, that a visa and therefore a Schengen travel insurance might be mandatory for your friends or relatives traveling to France from a non-Schengen country.

AXA Schengen Travel Insurance:

Covers medical expenses up to 30,000€ and even beyond for Europe Travel and Multi-trip policies.
