Plan Details

​​​​Greece is the cradle of Western civilization, the land of great myths and fables like the Odyssey and the Illiad and home to philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and more. Very few civilizations have achieved the sophistication the Greeks achieved in architecture. If you want proof, just visit the Pantheon in Athens; you'll be wonderstruck. Greece's recent financial woes have made visiting the country very affordable to tourists, who come here in droves.

Sun-kissed beaches, delectable Mediterranian food, great weather and a passionate music scene are some of the other things that tourists to Greece can look forward to. The food here is super cheap. Fresh vegetables, feta cheese, wines, seafood, bread, grilled meats – are common in the Meditteranean diet and so easily available in Greece. So you don't have to worry much about food.

​Greece is also known for its exotic islands. Most tourists will visit at least a few of the major islands like Santorini (famed for its blue-tinged buildings), Mykonos, Rhodes, Corfu island, Paros, Zakynthos, Milos and more. Most of these islands are connected by ferries. Did you know, you can also book your ferry ticket in advance, which will save you a bit of money.

If you are okay with traveling off the beaten path, Greece has some great sights to offer you. A good way to see the countryside is by moped. Other major attractions in Greece are the Acropolis, Parthenon, Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Palace of Knossos, Sanctuary of Apollo, the ancient cities of Delos, Olympia, and Delphi.

FAQs

  • What is the current GST rate on travel insurance premiums?

    Zero percent! That’s the big change. Until 21st September 2025, travel insurance premiums attracted 18% GST, just like other general insurance products. But from 22nd September onward, the government has removed GST on individual travel insurance policies making them significantly more affordable.

  • How will the GST waiver impact the cost of my travel insurance policy?

    Let’s break it down with a real-world example Suppose your travel insurance premium was ₹2,000. Earlier, you paid ₹2,360 (₹2,000 + ₹360 GST). Now, you’ll pay just ₹2,000 a direct saving of 18%. This means every rupee you pay now goes toward actual coverage, not taxes. For frequent travelers or those buying comprehensive plans, this could mean savings of ₹500 to ₹2,000 or more per policy.

  • How much GST do I now pay on travel insurance?

    None. GST has been fully waived on individual travel insurance premiums. You’ll see this reflected in your invoice no tax line, just the base premium.

  • If I bought a travel insurance policy before September 22, 2025, will GST still be charged?

    Yes, but only for that purchase. The GST exemption is not retroactive, so if you bought your policy before 22nd September, the 18% GST you paid won’t be refunded. However, any future renewals or new purchases will be GST-free.

  • What does the new GST regulation effective 22nd September mean for Travel Insurance premiums?

    This is part of the GST 2.0 overhaul, which aims to simplify the tax structure and make essential services more affordable. Travel insurance has now joined life and health insurance in the GST exempt category, meaning discounted premiums with the same coverage benefits.

  • Does the GST waiver apply to all categories of travel plans — Individual, Family, Student, Senior Citizen, Annual Multi-Trip, and Schengen?

    "Yes, it does! The exemption applies to all individual travel insurance policies, regardless of category:

    Single-trip or multi-trip, Student or senior citizen, Schengen visa plans, Family floaters or solo travelers. As long as it’s an individual policy, it qualifies for the GST waiver."

  • If I buy a new Travel Care plan today, will my premium automatically be GST-free?

    Absolutely. If you’re buying a Travel Care plan on or after 22nd September, your premium will be GST-free by default. You’ll only pay the base premium.

  • How much will my Travel Insurance premium reduce now that GST is removed?

    "You’ll save exactly 18% on the premium amount. For example ₹5,000 policy was earlier ₹5,900 (with GST).

    Now with the revised GST its ₹5,000 flat. That’s a ₹900 saving and it scales up with higher coverage or longer durations."

  • I bought my travel policy before 22nd September with GST. Does this change apply to me?

    Unfortunately, no. The GST exemption applies only to policies purchased on or after 22nd September. If you paid GST earlier, it’s not refundable, and your coverage remains unchanged.

  • Does the GST change impact visa-linked requirements like Schengen’s €30,000 cover?

    The Schengen visa requirement of €30,000 coverage remains unchanged. However, now that GST is removed, you’ll pay less for the same coverage, making it easier to meet embassy requirements without overspending.

  • Will coverage features such as emergency medical, baggage, or trip cancellation change due to GST removal?

    No changes to coverage. The GST exemption affects pricing, not the benefits. You’ll still get Emergency medical cover, Trip cancellation protection, Baggage loss reimbursement. But now, you get all this at a lower cost

  • How does GST removal benefit frequent flyers taking the Annual Multi-Trip plan?

    This is where the savings really add up. Annual multi-trip plans are already cost-effective, and now you save 18% on the entire annual premium. No GST means better ROI for frequent travelers. You can reinvest the savings into higher coverage or add-ons. For example, if your annual plan was ₹12,000 + ₹2,160 GST, you now pay just ₹12,000 saving over ₹2,000 instantly.​
