We live in a changed world after the pandemic. But the world has always been full of differences. Different people, different beliefs, different cultures. Differences challenge us, take us out of our comfort zone, and help us grow. Despite all these differences, there is something that unites us all: the love of travel.
Travel helps us discover the unknown and get to know the world. Every country has something unique, and travelers can learn a lot about other countries, whether in their own country or as two strangers discovering something new together on a foreign shore.
In some ways, the more things change, the more they stay the same. After countries relaxed their travel restrictions and entry procedures following the pandemic, people adapted and are ready to travel the world again. However, one thing remains unchanged: while Covid-19 is less of a focus, risks still exist for Indonesian citizens abroad. Travelers must therefore act responsibly. For this reason, travel insurance is just as important today as it was before the pandemic.
Travel insurance for Indonesian travelers
Travel insurance shouldn't be viewed as "Covid insurance." Since it was mandatory for travel over the past two years, people stopped thinking of insurance as travel insurance. Everything revolved around Covid.
Comprehensive travel insurance offers far more protection than just Covid. Anything can happen. Flights get delayed. Luggage gets lost. Accidents happen. That's why we need travel insurance.
Travel insurance provides protection against…
In Thailand, foreign visitors are not entitled to free medical care. In the event of an accident or injury, you will have to pay for treatment yourself. You will also incur additional costs for lost luggage or flight delays. Depending on the severity of the incident, these costs can amount to thousands of rupiah.
Travel insurance gives you security abroad, and working with a trusted company in your destination country makes it easy.

Advantages of AXA Sawasdee Thailand
While it is possible to purchase travel insurance through your home country, using an international company based in the destination country offers many advantages.
Thai approved
Partnering with a reputable and trusted local insurance company can significantly simplify the claims process. AXA's staff are familiar with the country's medical facilities and trained to communicate directly with them. They speak Thai and are well-versed in local law.
Using insurance from your home country can cause problems internationally or include certain exclusions when making a claim in Thailand. AXA Sawasdee is specifically designed for Thailand.
Travel insurance packages offered
Many travelers have different requirements for comfort and insurance coverage. AXA offers various packages to meet the needs of every traveler. Indonesian travelers can choose between two insurance packages for their trip:
Each package offers different insurance coverage and different compensation amounts.
No waiting time
Many insurers require a 14-day waiting period for certain conditions. This means you either have to take out your insurance weeks in advance or risk not being insured until the day after your holiday.
Because AXA understands that Indonesian tourists want to feel safe from the moment they arrive in Thailand, the company has eliminated the 14-day waiting period, so visitors are protected from day one.
Choice of policy term
Many insurance companies offer only limited choices regarding the duration of their policies.
Holidaymakers want to be sure they are covered until their safe return home. That's why visitors from Indonesia can choose the duration of their AXA insurance policy themselves.
Whether you stay for 15, 30, 60, 90, or 180 days – you are insured during your stay. If you are considering Thailand as a potential place to live or for a long-term stay, AXA offers the right insurance coverage.
AXA understands that plans can change. So if you'd like to extend your holiday, you don't need to worry about canceling and re-registering. Simply call and extend your existing insurance.
Days in quarantine and Covid diagnosis
If you are diagnosed with Covid-19 during your stay in Thailand, AXA Sawasdee Thailand will cover the costs of your quarantine. Should you require medical assistance during your quarantine, AXA Sawasdee Thailand will support you in organizing professional medical care and emergency transport.
Many insurance companies now offer Covid-19 coverage as standard. However, some exclude benefits if a traveler is diagnosed with an asymptomatic infection. This is not the case with AXA Sawasdee. You can claim on your insurance regardless of whether you experience symptoms or not.
Reliable service around the clock
AXA Sawasdee Thailand offers its insured travelers 24/7 access to a hotline. Friendly staff are always available to address your concerns and assist you.
They pride themselves on their fast and reliable service. Do you need your insurance policy and certificate quickly? AXA Sawasdee Thailand can help you with that.
Insurance certificate
Foreign visitors to Thailand no longer need to present proof of insurance. However, should an Indonesian citizen unexpectedly need to report an insurance claim or provide insurance documents to a doctor or hospital, they certainly wouldn't want to have to leaf through a lengthy insurance policy.
Indonesian travelers who purchase travel insurance from AXA Sawasdee Thailand receive a convenient, one-page insurance confirmation. This contains all relevant insurance details and can save time and hassle in a stressful situation.
Refundable
You will receive a full refund of your insurance premium if the Royal Thai Embassy/Consulate does not recognize your AXA Sawasdee Thailand insurance. You must provide proof that the insurance was not accepted by the embassy, such as a link to the embassy's website outlining the relevant requirements or an information sheet bearing the embassy's logo.
