Iran Travel Insurance

Do You Need Travel Insurance in Iran?

You need to have Iran travel insurance in order to enter Iran. Due to the sanctions against Iran, some international companies do not include Iran in their list of countries covered for travel insurance; therefore, you need special insurance that covers Iran. But before buying any new ones, check your current insurance to see if it covers Iran. Terms like “Asia” or “Middle-East” don’t necessarily mean that your insurance covers Iran, and you have to make sure by contacting the insurance company.

Note: Citizens of the following countries don’t need travel insurance in order to enter Iran. However, it is advised to get travel insurance in case of an emergency.

• Armenia
• Azerbaijan
• Bolivia
• Egypt
• Georgia
• Iraq
• Lebanon
• Malaysia
• Oman
• Syria
• Turkey
• Venezuela

Should You Buy Iran Travel Insurance From an International Company?

Some International companies offer Iran Travel Insurance. Their price is very high compared to the local providers (about 50 euros) due to the fact that their medical coverage is very high. Actually, you don’t need to be covered 2.5 million dollars for medical expenses in Iran, and you can buy a hospital with that kind of money! Most local providers cover theft, luggage loss, or legal assistance, which does not apply to some international companies.

Can You Get Iran Travel Insurance at the Airport?
