COVID-19 continues to impact travel and entry requirements for many countries. To protect their citizens, many Southeast Asian countries have implemented stricter entry rules, such as mandatory vaccination, negative PCR test results, and quarantine at the traveler’s own expense. Quarantine requirements can vary between countries and it’s important to check official government regulations before traveling.
Additionally, in some countries such as Indonesia or Singapore, additional COVID-19 insurance coverage is required for entry. To meet this requirement, many insurance companies have expanded their coverage to include costs related to hospitalization, testing, and medication in the event of a COVID-19 infection. It’s important to check with your insurance provider to see if they have added this coverage and to understand the details of the coverage. This article will provide a brief overview of the coverage and summarize the countries in which COVID-19 insurance coverage is mandatory for entry.
