   About Isla-Mauricia
Travel Insurance Mauritius & Baggage, flight, personal liability, hospital daily benefit, death, passport loss, legal assistance and trip cancellation option.

When it comes to travelling to Mauritius, it will usually require intense planning which comprises of getting your holidays settled at your work, getting the flight tickets, the accommodation, verifying your passport, visa, health checks, packing, getting to the airport and flying from some departure destinations around 12 hours or more with even in some cases with stops in between for example in Dubai while heading to our lovely island Mauritius.

Once you have reached our island, you will want to spend a stress free holiday without hassles and worries. As you know that health forms part of one of our most important priorities in life of maintaining oneself in a healthy state, that’s also where we wouldn't want to save the least when it comes to health problems. Going on holidays to Mauritius also forms part of one’s well being. Of spending a relaxed time, recovering from the daily stresses. It can arise though unfortunately that during your holiday in Mauritius that you can fall sick, have an accident, experience baggage loss or even need to cancel your trip before even arriving in Mauritius! Thus to minimize your costs and lessen the disappointment that will occur when one or several of these instances will arise, we advise you to take one of the best travel insurance, and not a cheap travel insurance which will make a stressful experience when it comes to making claims.

Please don't worry about health care in Mauritius.
The island has some very professional clinics to offer such as Appollo Bramwell and Fortis clinic Darné who offer a professional service and are well known institutions. Mauritius is also developing into a health care hub in the region.

Further Details concerning the Non Medical and Trip cancellation options
We wish to inform you about the following that you should consider when taking the insurance cover. You will also find more detailed information about this during the process where you get an online quote with the link at the bottom and of course in your policy.

Non Medical Option
In case of a burglary
Photo equipment and jewellery are covered max 25% of the insurance sum. Also, reimbursement for any individual object may never exceed 50% of the insurance sum. All other electronic equipment (laptops, mobile phones, mp3-players, etc.) and baggage (suitcases, clothing, toiletries, books, etc.) are covered up to the sum insured.

You must file a complaint with the police and keep a copy of the confirmed complaint by the police.

You will need to have the receipts of the items that were in your baggage.

You can make the claim online, or download claim forms there.

Baggage loss on arrival at the airport
First of all, do not put electronic items in your baggage but keep it in your hand luggage while you are travelling, else this will not be covered if there is a baggage loss.

If your baggage is not there on your arrival at the airport, please report this immediately in the baggage area of the airport. You will see some stands there where you can report this, or contact someone of the airline to assist you. It can happen sometimes that baggage gets delayed or comes with another aeroplane.

When you file your baggage loss with the airline company, you need a copy of this which you will need to send to the insurance company as proof that your baggage got lost.
Please also keep your receipts of the items that you have in your baggage so that the value of the items in the bag can be proven. Else their value will be evaluated. The amount and percentage covered will be the same as mentioned above in the case of a burglary.
Please also check the terms and conditions of the insurance for more details. We are giving you these current details so that you can make yourself a better picture of how those insurance products work and what to expect in case something happens.

Trip Cancellation option
When you cancel your trip you might incur losses. In order to get back some of those losses you should also take the trip cancellation option when you take the insurance policy.

Flight ticket and the booked accommodation are covered, the maximum reimbursement amounts to EUR 1450 per trip per insured and this is of course only if the insured cannot travel due to serious illness/injury requiring hospitalisation or medically prescribed as unfit to travel which means that the insurance company will also need a report from a doctor as proof. The cancellation option only applies when going that is leaving for your holiday and not when travelling back home.

You will need to show evidence of what you paid for so that the insurance company knows how much they need to give you back.


Short Disclaimer
We kindly ask for your understanding if a detail of your insurance policy was not mentioned above or if there were slight differences. The information we display here is not binding. When you take the insurance policy, you will be bound to the terms and conditions of the insurance provider and not us. We have deemed it necessary to display in depth details of those insurance products as very often people only estimate to know what kind of insurance they are taking, and get disappointed when the insurance does not cover them fully for certain losses. It is better you are informed before hand properly so that you know what to expect in which situation and if you will be covered or not. Thus also read your insurance policy properly. In this case also it remains between you and the insurance company to settle for what needs to be covered in the unhappy event of the occurrence of losses.
