Are you planning a trip to Hong Kong to soak in the Chinese culture? Well, before you say ‘Ni hao’ to Hong Kong, you should consider purchasing travel insurance.
But why does one need Hong Kong travel insurance?
Well, traveling, especially to international destinations, can be fraught with many unforeseen dangers. So, in any case, it is better to have a travel insurance plan without needing to claim it than not to have one at all during emergencies.
Still, before learning about such an insurance policy, here is more about Hong Kong and the fantastic times you will probably experience during your travel there.
No, travel insurance is not mandatory for a trip to Hong Kong. However, that should not stop you from availing travel insurance for Hong Kong from India. Things tend to go wrong on trips, especially when travelling abroad. Opting for such an insurance plan should limit unplanned and unforeseen stress on your finances during the travel.
A $50,000 Hong Kong travel insurance plan from India for 4 days for 1 adult starts from ₹395 (excluding GST).
Hong Kong is a much-loved tourist destination. It has beautiful theme parks, beaches and islands, museums and monasteries, and other avenues for sightseeing. Combining culture, history, and entertainment in one exciting package, Hong Kong is one of the most glamorous cities in the world, attracting tourists throughout the year.
Indian passport holders do not need a visa to travel to Hong Kong if they are visiting the country for 14 days or less. In this case, Indian citizens have the provision for visa-free entry into Hong Kong through visa on arrival (pre-arrival registration). However, if one wishes to extend their stay in Hong Kong for more than 14 days, he/she must apply for a Hong Kong visa.
