What actually moves the price here
Cover runs from 30000 EURO at ₹674 up to 1000000 USD at ₹1,831. Multiplying the sum insured by 33× costs 172% more — which is why the lowest cover is rarely the best value.
Every plan at this combination is sub-limit free.
Pre-existing disease cover starts at ₹667 against ₹628 without — a ₹39 difference. PED cover is fixed by the insurer, not an add-on you tick.
CARE - New Explore is cheapest here at ₹628; ICICI LOMBARD's entry price is ₹1,264, 101% higher. Rankings move with age and duration, so the cheapest insurer for this trip is not the cheapest for every trip.

This price holds for ages 0–40. The next band, 41–50, starts at ₹735 — 17% more for the identical trip. Age is priced in steps, not smoothly, so a birthday either side of 41 changes the premium more than any other single choice.

Worth knowing about Schengen
Schengen visa applications require medical cover of at least €30,000, valid across all member states and for the full stay. Every plan listed here clears that bar, and the insurer issues a visa letter naming the policy — apply with the certificate, not just the receipt.
Common questions
- How much is travel insurance for a 35-year-old going the Schengen area for 21 days?
- Between ₹628 and ₹4,776, with a median of ₹1,258 across 37 plans from 5 insurers. The spread reflects sum insured and whether the plan carries sub-limits, not just the insurer.
- Which insurers cover a 35-year-old for this trip?
- BAJAJ, CARE - New Explore, ICICI LOMBARD, INDUSIND, TATA AIG. Not every insurer quotes at every age — the older the traveller, the fewer will.
- Can a 35-year-old get pre-existing disease cover for this trip?
- Yes — 33 of the 37 plans include it. PED cover is fixed by the insurer, not chosen, so check it per plan rather than assuming.
- What does travel insurance cost per day for this trip?
- About ₹30 a day at the cheapest plan, over 21 days. Per-day cost falls as the trip lengthens — insurers price in day bands, not per night, so the last few days of a band are effectively free.
- Is it cheaper to insure a shorter trip the Schengen area?
- Going 20 days instead would cost ₹618, and stretching to 22 days ₹652 — 4% more premium for 5% more time.
- Does the premium change much at 35?
- This price holds for ages 0–40. The next band, 41–50, starts at ₹735 — 17% more for the identical trip. Age is priced in steps, not smoothly, so a birthday either side of 41 changes the premium more than any other single choice.
- Can I extend a 21-day trip without paying more?
- A 21-day trip sits at the top of its price band. One more day moves it to ₹652, 4% more — so if the plan might slip, buying the longer band up front is cheaper than extending later.
- Should I pay more to remove the sub-limit?
- Every plan at this combination is sub-limit free.
