Visitor to Canada
Need Insurance Support?
Visitors Insurance (also called Travel Medical Insurance for Visitors to Canada) is a medical coverage plan designed for individuals visiting Canada on a temporary basis — including tourists, business travelers, international students awaiting provincial coverage, or new immigrants.
Why Visitors Insurance is Important
1
Healthcare in Canada is Expensive
Visitors are not covered under Canada’s public healthcare system (provincial health plans). Without insurance, even a minor medical emergency can cost thousands of dollars.
2
Financial Protection
Covers emergency medical expenses such as hospitalization, ambulance, surgeries, and prescription medication.
3
Peace of Mind
Ensures travelers can access timely medical care without worrying about finances, allowing them to focus on enjoying their trip.
4
Flexible Coverage:
Plans can be purchased for short trips or extended stays, and can often be extended if visitors decide to stay longer.
