New insurance coverage for inbound travellers to cover Covid-19 related costs in Singapore
SINGAPORE 18 November 2020 – Changi Airport Group (CAG) and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), on behalf of the Emerging Stronger Taskforce Alliance for Action (EST-AfA) on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences[1], announced today that foreign visitors will now be able to buy inbound travel insurance coverage for Covid-19 related costs incurred in Singapore.
Inbound insurance coverage has been identified as a key enabler to facilitate the resumption of travel to Singapore. In line with the EST-AfA’s focus on public-private partnerships, CAG, STB and the General Insurance Association of Singapore (GIA) led an Expression of Interest (EOI) exercise to reach out to interested private sector insurers to provide such coverage. In response to the EOI, three insurance companies, AIG Asia Pacific Insurance Pte. Ltd., Chubb Insurance Singapore Limited and HL Assurance Pte. Ltd., have developed travel insurance products which provide at least S$30,000 in coverage for Covid-19 related medical treatment and hospitalisation costs. A minimum of S$30,000 in coverage is recommended by the Ministry of Health based on Covid-19 bill sizes at private hospitals, which is where inbound travellers typically receive care for Covid-19. (Please see Annex for the list of insurers and their insurance plans).
Inbound foreign travellers entering Singapore via the various Safe Travel Lanes are required to bear the full cost of medical treatment, tests and isolation, should they be suspected of being infected with Covid-19, or require medical treatment for Covid-19 while in Singapore. With immediate effect[2], they will be able to purchase a travel insurance plan to help them cover some of these costs.
“We have been actively engaging the insurance community since August this year, through an Expression of Interest (EOI) exercise[3], to develop inbound travel insurance products as Singapore progressively reopens. We noticed such products were not available in the market, and wanted to encourage insurers to develop such products and offer them to travellers at a reasonable price.” said Mr Lee Seow Hiang, Changi Airport Group’s Chief Executive Officer and co-lead of the Alliance.
“With the gradual resumption of travel and the re-opening of borders, having robust travel insurance options in place is integral to ensuring a successful and sustainable revival of inbound travel to Singapore. The general insurance sector is committed to providing travellers visiting Singapore the protection they need to travel here with confidence.” said Mr Ho Kai Weng, General Insurance Association (GIA) of Singapore’s Chief Executive.
Earlier in September, the EST Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences announced that it will be testing a prototype for safe tradeshows and exhibitions, as well as safe itineraries for event attendees. The new insurance products will complement this earlier work in resuming safe travel.
“As we gradually re-open for safe travel, Covid-19 insurance coverage is a key enabler to rebuild traveller confidence and provide peace of mind. We are heartened that the public and private sectors have come together to provide solutions, and we look forward to more collaborations that will help Singapore lead the way as a safe, trusted and innovative destination.” said Mr Keith Tan, Singapore Tourism Board’s Chief Executive.
Premiums for these inbound travel insurance plans start from S$5.35 (inclusive of GST) and can be purchased directly from the insurers through their respective websites.
[1] The Emerging Stronger Taskforce (EST), formed under the Future Economy Council (FEC) convened the Singapore Together Alliances for Action (“Alliances”), which are industry-led, government-supported coalitions that will act quickly by prototyping ideas on key areas for Singapore. The Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences is one of them. Co-led by Mr Lee Seow Hiang of Changi Airport Group and Ms Kwee Wei-Lin of Singapore Hotel Association, the Alliance has worked closely with a diverse range of industry stakeholders and government agencies to explore and pioneer new ways to facilitate safe and innovative visitor experiences in a Covid-19 environment.
[2] Refer to Annex for each insurer’s expected sale date.
[3] CAG, on behalf of the Alliance, appointed Willis Towers Watson (WTW) as the consultant of the EOI exercise, where the objective was to invite licensed Singapore insurers to offer coverage to inbound foreign travellers’ Covid-19 related costs in Singapore.

Best Travel Insurance in Singapore with Covid-19 Coverage
Travelling during a pandemic can be stressful. get yourself appropriately covered with the best travel insurance plans before your trip..
by Tan Jia Hui
Make Home Care Personal To Your Loved One
As more countries open up, many Singaporeans are excitedly making holiday plans after close to three years. However, with all the uncertainty regarding outbreaks and government regulations, you may be facing turmoil on whether to book your flight and accommodations, especially if they are non-refundable.
The good news is, travel insurance policies now cover Covid-19-related disruptions. Many also provide compensation if you or your loved ones are diagnosed with Covid-19 before, during, or after the trip, so you can have peace of mind as you book your next vacation.
How to choose the best travel insurance with Covid-19 coverage
With the myriad of options available, how do you choose the best travel insurance with Covid-19 coverage?
Here are 5 key factors you should look out for to help you make an informed decision:
1. Price range
Depending on your destination country, travel duration, and a number of other factors, insurance premiums can range from tens of dollars to several hundreds. It is always best to find a balance between the cost of premium and the coverage you need.
2. Coverage
A typical travel insurance covers the following:
- Overseas medical expenses, including treatment, evacuation and repatriation
- Death and total and permanent disability (TPD)
- Missing or lost baggage
- Flight delays and cancellations
- Trip cancellation
Pay extra attention to the coverage for overseas medical expenses. Most domestic insurance do not cover overseas expenses, which can easily cost upwards of thousands of dollars in the unfortunate event of a medical emergency. The cost of medical expenses may also vary greatly depending on your destination, so be sure to take that into consideration.
Depending on your itinerary and purpose of travel, you may choose to add extra coverage. For example, if you are an adrenaline junkie, consider getting a plan with adventure and sports coverage.
In the current pandemic situation, it is highly recommended to ensure your plan includes Covid-19 coverage. Covid-19 coverage typically includes the following benefits if you or your family members are diagnosed with Covid-19, or if you are affected by a related disruption:
- Medical expenses
- Hospitalisation allowance
- Quarantine allowance
- Trip postponement
- Trip disruption
- Trip curtailment
- Emergency evacuation and repatriation
3. Reliability of provider
Misinformation and fraud is rampant these days, and making sure your insurance provider is reliable is key to avoid being scammed. There are a few steps you can take to ensure the reliability of your insurance provider, such as checking that the agent is authorised by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), requesting for a receipt, and ensuring the details on the policy document is accurate.
The safest option is to go with a reputable insurance provider that has a great track record so that you can have peace of mind and be confident that your insurance provider has your back should you face any issues overseas.
4. Ease of claims
Often, you may discover travel insurance plans with similar coverage but vastly different costs. While it is tempting to go with the more affordable option, make sure to check the fine print and reviews first. It could be that the company has a tedious and lengthy claim process or highly restrictive rules in the fine print that results in many claims being denied. These days, some insurers also provide a paperless claim process for a more seamless and fuss-free experience.
5. Additional features
Depending on the insurance plan and provider, there may be value-added services and features that you may find useful. For example, some insurance providers provide a 24/7 global medical assistance hotline to connect you with medical treatment and transportation while overseas. Others have an app where you can easily find your policy details, file and track claims, locate nearby medical facilities, police stations, or embassies, and even access medical translation functionalities.
If you find these additional features helpful, keep a look out for them when purchasing your travel insurance plan.

Top 8 travel insurance plans with Covid-19 coverage
Depending on the country you are visiting, you may have to meet the mandatory Covid-19 travel insurance requirements to enter. For example, Singapore requires all inbound short-term visitors to have travel insurance with a minimum coverage of $30,000 for Covid-19-related medical expenses.
Here are the estimated premium and Covid-19 coverage of different travel insurance policies for a 7-days trip to most destinations worldwide:
Do note that the numbers above are for the most basic plan offered by each travel insurance provider. Many of them also offer plans with higher coverage, but of course have higher premiums as well.
1. FWD Premium
FWD offers affordable travel insurance plans with Covid-19 coverage. At $51.60 for a week-long trip to most destinations including the USA, FWD Premium has one of the lowest premiums in this list, but its coverage is also limited to only the bare minimum.
The Covid-19 insurance, which you have to purchase as an add-on to the FWD Premium plan, covers:
- Medical expenses : Up to $200,000 while overseas or after returning to Singapore
- Hospitalisation allowance : $50 per day for up to 14 consecutive days while overseas, $100 per day for up to 14 days after returning to Singapore
- Trip cancellation : Up to $5,000 for non-refundable costs, for up to 30 days before the trip
- Trip disruption : Up to $5,000
- Emergency evacuation and repatriation : Up to $200,000
The good thing about the FWD Premium travel insurance policy is that the medical expenses and hospitalisation allowance benefits are applicable for up to 14 days after your return, which not all plans offer.
2. Klook x MSIG Lite Plan
Another affordable travel insurance plan with Covid-19 coverage is the Klook x MSIG Lite Travel Insurance . At only $34.40 for a week-long trip to Thailand and up to $88 for a trip to the United States, its premium is comparable to FWD’s, but their Covid-19 coverage differs.
Covid-19 travel insurance coverage:
- Medical expenses : Up to $100,000 while overseas
- Hospitalisation allowance : $100 per day for up to 14 days while overseas, with maximum limit of $350
- Quarantine allowance : $100 per day for up to 14 days while overseas, with maximum limit of $350
- Trip cancellation : Up to $2,500
- Trip curtailment : Up to $2,500
- Evacuation and repatriation : Unlimited
While MSIG provides an overseas quarantine allowance, its payouts for hospitalisation allowance, medical expenses, as well as trip cancellations or disruptions, are lower compared to FWD.
Importantly, do take note that the Covid-19 cover will cease immediately after your return to Singapore, and the plan covers a trip duration of up to 30 days only, with no extension available.
If you are on a tight budget and don’t mind the basic coverage, consider getting this plan.
3. AIG Travel Guard Basic
For a comprehensive plan that already incoporates Covid-19 coverage, consider the AIG Travel Guard Basic . Under this policy, a week-long trip to Japan would incur a premium of $68.
- Medical expenses, emergency evacuation, and repatriation : Up to $50,000 for those below 70 years old, up to $25,000 for children and those above 70 years old
- Quarantine allowance : $50 per day for up to 14 days while overseas
- Travel cancellation : Up to $2,500
- Travel postponement : Up to $500
While this plan offers decent coverage, it is missing a few elements, namely payouts for hospitalisation allowance, pre-departure changes to your trip, and even if you decide to return to Singapore early.
For better overall coverage, you have the option of upgrading to the Standard, Enhanced, or Supreme plans. However, do note that while these plans have higher compensation for the existing benefits, they do not provide additional benefits like hospitalisation allowance.
4. Allianz Single Trip Bronze
Rather than an add-on, Allianz incorporates Covid-19 coverage into its existing travel insurance plans. This means that while its medical expense coverage is significantly higher than the other plans above, it doesn’t provide payouts for travel delays, or allowance for hospitalisation and quarantine due to Covid-19.
You can get the Allianz Single Trip Bronze plan at $49 for a week-long trip to Thailand, or $112 if you are travelling to the USA.
- Emergency medical and dental expenses : Up to $200,000 for those below 70 years old, up to $50,000 for those above 70 years old
- Travel cancellation : Up to $5,000
- Emergency transportation : Unlimited
For those who are looking for a more comprehensive plan, including personal accident and trip interruption coverage, Allianz also provides two other travel insurance plans: Silver and Platinum.
At the time of updating (9 Nov 2022), Allianz is also offering 12% off their travel insurance if you use the promo code “travel12”.
5. AXA SmartTraveller Essential
Since 1 February 2021, the AXA SmartTraveller plans have been updated to better suit Singaporeans’ travel needs. The most basic plan, AXA SmartTraveller Essential , costs $157.02 for a week-long trip to most countries and includes the following Covid-19 travel insurance coverage:
- Medical expenses : Up to $75,000 overseas, and up to $37,500 in Singapore
- Hospitalisation allowance : $100 per day, up to a limit of $1,000
- Quarantine allowance : $50 per day, up to a limit of $350 overseas and $350 in Singapore
- Trip cancellation : Up to $1,000
- Trip postponement : Up to $500
- Trip curtailment or rearrangement : Up to $2,000
While the Covid-19 medical expense coverage for the Essential plan is considered low compared to the other plans on this list, AXA covers medical costs incurred within 90 days of your trip, which is quite generous duration-wise. For a higher coverage, you may want to consider upgrading to the Comprehensive plan, which covers up to $150,000 for Covid-19 medical treatment.
Another perk of the AXA SmartTraveller plan is their flexibility when it comes to claims for trip curtailment, which includes situations where a family member passes on due to Covid-19 or when there is a Covid-19 outbreak at the destination country.
6. NTUC Income Classic
For a week-long trip to most destinations, the NTUC Income Classic plan costs $149. On top of personal accident coverage, the plan includes the following Covid-19 travel insurance coverage:
- Medical expenses : Up to $250,000 while overseas
- Quarantine allowance : $100 per day while overseas, capped at $1,400
- Trip cancellation : Up to $5,000
- Trip curtailment : Up to $5,000
- Trip disruption : Up to $2,000
- Emergency transportation : Up to $150,000
All NTUC Income travel insurance policies bought online now include Covid-19 coverage for the first 90 days of each trip. However, do take note of the exclusions, as they do not cover travel inconveniences caused by border closures and government advisories.
For increased coverage, you have the option to choose NTUC Income’s Deluxe or Preferred travel insurance plans. Alternatively, if you are looking for a travel insurance policy that covers pre-existing conditions, NTUC Income is also one of the few providers that offers it. Their Enhanced PreX Travel Insurance starts from $194 for a week-long trip.
At the time of updating (9 November 2022), there is also an ongoing 40% promotion for all single-trip travel insurance policies bought online.
7. Sompo Essential
The Sompo Essential plan costs $129 for a week-long trip to most countries worldwide, and includes the following Covid-19 travel insurance coverage:
- Overseas medical expenses : Up to $200,000
- Medical expenses in Singapore : Up to $5,000
- Hospitalisation allowance : $100 per day while overseas, capped at $3,000
- Quarantine allowance : $50 per day while overseas, capped at $700
- Trip postponement : Up to $5,000
- Trip disruption : Up to $1,000
- Emergency medical evacuation : Up to $500,000
- Repatriation : Up to $30,000
In terms of breadth of coverage, the Sompo Essential plan has most of the Covid-19 benefits that other plans offer as well. Furthermore, the trip cancellation, postponement, and curtailment benefits apply not only when you contract Covid-19, but also when your travel companion(s) who are also insured by Sompo are infected.
However, do note that Sompo only covers Covid-19-related medical expenses for a period of up to 45 days (or until the maximum limit is reached), starting from your first day of treatment. Any medical expense incurred after 45 days will not be covered.
If you would like a more comprehensive coverage, there is the option to upgrade to the Sompo Superior plan.
At the time of updating (9 November 2022), Sompo is running a promotion for its single-trip Covid-19 insurance plans. Purchase your policies at 25% off till 4 December 2022.
8. Singlife Travel Lite
Singlife offers three plans with different levels of coverage: Travel Lite, Travel Plus, and Travel Prestige. The Singlife Travel Lite plan is the most affordable of the three, at $77.93 for a week-long trip to most destinations worldwide.
- Medical expenses and emergency medical evacuation : Up to $250,000 while overseas
- Medical expenses in Singapore : Up to $10,000
- Trip cancellation : Up to $5,000
- Trip interruption : Up to $1,000
While the Singlife Travel Lite plan—the most basic of the three—has quite a low coverage, the benefits of the other two plans are comparable to the rest on the list and include overseas quarantine allowance of up to $2,000.
Additionally, MINDEF/MHA and POGIS policyholders can enjoy up to 46% off single-trip plans and 30% off multi-trip plans.
While we have provided a brief summary of the pros and cons of various travel insurance plans, remember to also read the fine print before making a decision to make sure the plan is right for you.
What to do if you get Covid-19 during or after your trip?
If you are diagnosed with Covid-19 or are affected by a related disruption during your trip, call your insurance provider immediately as they will be most familiar with the plan you have purchased and will be able to advise you accordingly. There may be steps you need to take within a fixed time frame (e.g. obtain an official quarantine order or a doctor’s letter) for the insurer to approve your claims, so you should call them once you are aware of the diagnosis or disruption. Most insurers should have a hotline that operates 24/7.
You will also have to submit your claim with supporting documents within the deadline (usually 30 days), so make sure that you always keep all receipts in an accessible place so you can submit claims on-the-go and do not have to wait till you are back in Singapore to process the claim.

Inbound visitors to Singapore can now buy travel insurance to cover Covid-19 medical costs

SINGAPORE — Foreigners travelling to Singapore can now buy travel insurance to cover Covid-19-related medical costs incurred while they are here.
Insurance coverage is a key enabler to rebuild traveller confidence and provide peace of mind, Changi Airport Group’s chief executive officer Lee Seow Hiang said.

SINGAPORE — Foreigners travelling to Singapore can now buy travel insurance to cover Covid-19-related medical costs incurred while they are here.
Three companies — AIG Asia Pacific Insurance, Chubb Insurance Singapore and HL Assurance — have developed plans that will provide at least S$30,000 in coverage for medical treatment and hospitalisation costs related to the coronavirus.
The announcement was made in a joint statement by Changi Airport Group (CAG) and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) on behalf of the Emerging Stronger Taskforce Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences on Wednesday (Nov 18). The alliance is one of seven industry-led coalitions working with the Government to quickly execute ideas to support and grow the economy.
For now, foreign travellers entering Singapore via the various safe travel lanes are required to bear the full cost of medical treatment, tests and isolation, should they be suspected of being infected with Covid-19 or require medical treatment for the coronavirus here.
A minimum of S$30,000 of coverage is recommended by the Ministry of Health based on Covid-19 bill sizes at private hospitals — where inbound travellers typically receive such care, the statement said.
The plans by AIG and HL Assurance are already available for purchase on their respective websites, while Chubb's will go on sale from Nov 27. Premiums start from S$5.35.
Inbound insurance coverage has been identified as a key enabler to facilitate the resumption of travel to Singapore through rebuilding traveller confidence and providing peace of mind, the statement said.
Mr Lee Seow Hiang, chief executive officer of CAG, said that the group has been “actively engaging” the insurance community since August to develop travel insurance products as Singapore progressively reopens,
“With the gradual resumption of travel and the reopening of borders, having robust travel insurance options in place is integral to ensuring a successful and sustainable revival of inbound travel to Singapore,” he added.
“We are heartened that the public and private sectors have come together to provide solutions, and we look forward to more collaborations that will help Singapore lead the way as a safe, trusted and innovative destination.”
As for outbound travellers, HL Assurance told TODAY that it is working on a product targeted at this group, adding that more details will be released later.
TODAY has reached out to AIG and Chubb for more information on their plans.

Inbound travellers to Singapore can purchase insurance for Covid-19 related costs
SINGAPORE - Inbound travellers arriving in Singapore can now purchase insurance coverage for Covid-19 related costs incurred during their stay here.
Changi Airport Group (CAG) and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said in a joint statement on Wednesday (Nov 18) morning that three insurance companies have developed travel insurance products which provide at least $30,000 in coverage for Covid-19 related medical treatment and hospitalisation costs.
The minimum coverage sum was decided based on recommendations by the Ministry of Health (MOH), which considered bills for Covid-19 treatment at private hospitals.
The three companies providing insurance coverage are AIG Asia Pacific Insurance, Chubb Insurance Singapore Limited and HL Assurance.
While AIG and HL Assurance have started selling their insurance products, Chubb's will be available from Nov 27.
Under present rules, inbound foreign travellers entering Singapore through various safe travel lanes are required to bear the full cost of medical treatment, tests and isolation, should they be suspected of being infected with Covid-19 or require medical treatment for the virus while in Singapore.
As such, the travel insurance plan will help them cover some of these costs, said CAG and STB.
Mr Lee Seow Hiang, CAG's chief executive and co-lead of the Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences under the Emerging Stronger Taskforce said: "We have been actively engaging the insurance community since August this year, through an Expression of Interest exercise, to develop inbound travel insurance products as Singapore progressively reopens.
"We noticed such products were not available on the market, and wanted to encourage insurers to develop such products and offer them to travellers at a reasonable price."
Mr Ho Kai Weng, chief executive of the General Insurance Association of Singapore said: "With the gradual resumption of travel and the re-opening of borders, having robust travel insurance options in place is integral to ensuring a successful and sustainable revival of inbound travel to Singapore.
"The general insurance sector is committed to providing travellers visiting Singapore the protection they need to travel here with confidence."
Added Mr Keith Tan, STB's chief executive: "As we gradually re-open for safe travel, Covid-19 insurance coverage is a key enabler to rebuild traveller confidence and provide peace of mind.
"We are heartened that the public and private sectors have come together to provide solutions, and we look forward to more collaborations that will help Singapore lead the way as a safe, trusted and innovative destination."
CAG and STB said premiums for these inbound travel insurance plans start from $5.35, with GST, and can be purchased directly from the insurers through their respective websites.
The two organisations added that the new insurance products complement earlier announcements by the Emerging Stronger Taskforce that a pilot for safe tradeshows and exhibition will start from November.
The pilot includes safe itineraries for event attendees which comprise leisure activities that are in line with prevailing safe management guidelines.
Last month (Oct 20), MOH also announced that participants in some mass events will have to take an antigen rapid test for Covid-19 and test negative before admission.

New insurance coverage for inbound travellers to cover Covid-19 related costs in Singapore
SINGAPORE, 18 November 2020 – Changi Airport Group (CAG) and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), on behalf of the Emerging Stronger Taskforce Alliance for Action (EST-AfA) on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences 1 , announced today that foreign visitors will now be able to buy inbound travel insurance coverage for Covid-19 related costs incurred in Singapore.
Inbound insurance coverage has been identified as a key enabler to facilitate the resumption of travel to Singapore. In line with the EST-AfA’s focus on public-private partnerships, CAG, STB and the General Insurance Association of Singapore (GIA) led an Expression of Interest (EOI) exercise to reach out to interested private sector insurers to provide such coverage. In response to the EOI, three insurance companies, AIG Asia Pacific Insurance Pte. Ltd., Chubb Insurance Singapore Limited and HL Assurance Pte. Ltd., have developed travel insurance products which provide at least S$30,000 in coverage for Covid-19 related medical treatment and hospitalisation costs. A minimum of S$30,000 in coverage is recommended by the Ministry of Health based on Covid-19 bill sizes at private hospitals, which is where inbound travellers typically receive care for Covid-19. (Please see Annex for the list of insurers and their insurance plans).
Inbound foreign travellers entering Singapore via the various Safe Travel Lanes are required to bear the full cost of medical treatment, tests and isolation, should they be suspected of being infected with Covid-19, or require medical treatment for Covid-19 while in Singapore. With immediate effect 2 , they will be able to purchase a travel insurance plan to help them cover some of these costs.
“We have been actively engaging the insurance community since August this year, through an Expression of Interest (EOI) exercise 3 , to develop inbound travel insurance products as Singapore progressively reopens. We noticed such products were not available in the market, and wanted to encourage insurers to develop such products and offer them to travellers at a reasonable price.” said Mr Lee Seow Hiang, Changi Airport Group’s Chief Executive Officer and co-lead of the Alliance.
“With the gradual resumption of travel and the re-opening of borders, having robust travel insurance options in place is integral to ensuring a successful and sustainable revival of inbound travel to Singapore. The general insurance sector is committed to providing travellers visiting Singapore the protection they need to travel here with confidence.” said Mr Ho Kai Weng, General Insurance Association (GIA) of Singapore’s Chief Executive.
Earlier in September, the EST Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences announced that it will be testing a prototype for safe tradeshows and exhibitions, as well as safe itineraries for event attendees. The new insurance products will complement this earlier work in resuming safe travel.
“As we gradually re-open for safe travel, Covid-19 insurance coverage is a key enabler to rebuild traveller confidence and provide peace of mind. We are heartened that the public and private sectors have come together to provide solutions, and we look forward to more collaborations that will help Singapore lead the way as a safe, trusted and innovative destination.” said Mr Keith Tan, Singapore Tourism Board’s Chief Executive.
Premiums for these inbound travel insurance plans start from S$5.35 (inclusive of GST) and can be purchased directly from the insurers through their respective websites.
1.The Emerging Stronger Taskforce (EST), formed under the Future Economy Council (FEC) convened the Singapore Together Alliances for Action (“Alliances”), which are industry-led, government-supported coalitions that will act quickly by prototyping ideas on key areas for Singapore. The Alliance for Action on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences is one of them. Co-led by Mr Lee Seow Hiang of Changi Airport Group and Ms Kwee Wei Lin of Singapore Hotel Association, the Alliance has worked closely with a diverse range of industry stakeholders and government agencies to explore and pioneer new ways to facilitate safe and innovative visitor experiences in a Covid-19 environment.
2. Refer to Annex for each insurer’s expected sale date.
3.CAG, on behalf of the Alliance, appointed Willis Towers Watson (WTW) to launch the EOI, where the objective was to invite licensed Singapore insurers to offer coverage to inbound foreign travellers’ Covid-19 related costs in Singapore.

Singapore rolls out Covid-19 insurance for inbound travellers
Inbound visitors to Singapore can now buy travel insurance coverage for Covid-19-related costs incurred during their stay here, Changi Airport Group (CAG) and Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said in a joint statement on Wednesday.
The statement was made on behalf of the Emerging Stronger Taskforce Alliance for Action (EST-AfA) on Enabling Safe and Innovative Visitor Experiences.
Under the plan, three insurance companies, namely, AIG Asia Pacific Insurance, Chubb Insurance Singapore and HL Assurance, have developed travel insurance products which provide at least S$30,000 (US$22,326) in coverage for Covid-19-related medical treatment and hospitalisation costs.
The minimum coverage amount is based on recommendations by the Ministry of Health, in view of Covid-19 bill sizes at private hospitals, which is where inbound travellers typically receive care for the virus.
Premiums for these inbound travel insurance plans start from S$5.35, inclusive of GST, and can be purchased directly from the insurers through their respective websites.
The insurance plans available are as below:
Under current regulations, inbound foreign travellers entering Singapore via the various safe travel lanes are required to bear the full cost of medical treatment, tests and isolation, should they be suspected of being infected with Covid-19, or require medical treatment for the virus while in Singapore. Hence, the travel insurance plans have been designed to help them cover some of these costs.
Lee Seow Hiang, Changi Airport Group’s CEO and co-lead of the Alliance, said: “We have been actively engaging the insurance community since August this year, through an Expression of Interest (EOI) exercise, to develop inbound travel insurance products as Singapore progressively reopens.

The Singapore Airlines flight carrying the Catholic pontiff and his entourage took off around 12:25 p.m. (0425 GMT) in Singapore and is due to arrive in Rome on Friday evening, after a 12-hour flight through six time zones. Francis visited Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore over a span of 12 days.

Francis marveled at Singapore's modern skyscrapers “that seem to rise from the sea” in both his opening speech to the city-state's leaders and again in the afternoon, when he celebrated Mass before an estimated 50,000 people at Singapore's national stadium. Singapore celebrated Francis' arrival by unveiling a new hybrid orchid named for him, the "Dendrobium His Holiness Pope Francis."

European Union members such as Germany, Finland and Sweden that have not pushed for the tariffs would feel less impact, with little exposure to the export items singled out by China.

The Multi-Ministry Taskforce regularly reviews Singapore’s border measures to manage the risk of importation and onward local transmission from travellers. Given the resurgence of COVID-19 cases around the world, we will be putting in place more stringent measures for travellers to manage the risk of importation. On-arrival Testing for Travellers 2. We currently require travellers who are not Singapore Citizens (SCs) or Permanent Residents (PRs), and who have recent travel history to high-risk countries/ regions, to take a COVID-19 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test within 72 hours before departure. These travellers are then required to serve their Stay-Home Notice (SHN) upon arrival in Singapore, and they are tested at the end of their SHN. 3. Given the emergence of new virus variants and the worsening COVID-19 situation around the world, we will put in place additional border control measures for all travellers. In particular, from 24 January 2021, 2359 hours, all travellers (including SCs and PRs) will need to take a COVID-19 PCR test upon arrival in Singapore 1 . The prevailing SHN requirements, including the PCR test at the end of the SHN, will continue. Further Precautions for Travellers from the United Kingdom and South Africa 4. We had earlier restricted entry and transit for all long-term pass holders and short-term visitors with recent travel history to the UK and South Africa. This arose from concerns of a more contagious variant of the COVID-19 virus circulating in these countries. 5. As a further precaution, from 18 January 2021, 2359 hours, until further notice, all returning SCs and PRs from the UK and South Africa will be subject to an additional 7-day self-isolation at their place of residence, following their 14-day SHN at dedicated SHN facilities. The returnees from the UK and South Africa will be tested at the end of their SHN (as per the current requirement), and again after they have completed their 7-day self-isolation period. These further precautions will apply to travellers who are currently serving their SHN. Insurance Coverage 6. Currently, short-term visitors entering Singapore under the Air Travel Pass (ATP) and Reciprocal Green Lanes (RGLs) are required to bear the full costs of medical treatment, should they be suspected of being infected with COVID-19 or require medical treatment for COVID-19 while in Singapore. 7. With effect from 31 January 2021, 2359 hours, visitors applying to enter Singapore under the ATP and RGLs will need to have travel insurance for their COVID-19-related medical treatment and hospitalisation costs in Singapore, with a minimum coverage of S$30,000. The travel insurance will help them pay for the costs of their medical treatment in Singapore. The visitors can purchase the travel insurance from Singapore-based or overseas insurers. A list of available insurance products can be found at the SafeTravel website . Looking Ahead to Further Reopening 8. As the global situation evolves, we will continue to adjust our border measures to manage the risk of importation and transmission to the community. The Ministry of Health will also continue to review the data and evidence on any new viral strains and update the measures accordingly. 9. Any changes to border measures will be updated on the SafeTravel website . Travellers are advised to visit the website to check for the most updated border measures before entering Singapore and be prepared to be subjected to the prevailing border measures upon entry, including payment for their stay at dedicated SHN facilities, tests and treatment. 10. We seek the continued cooperation of all Singaporeans to remain united and disciplined in our fight against COVID-19. MINISTRY OF HEALTH 16 JANUARY 2021 1 To expedite the COVID-19 PCR test at the airport, travellers are strongly encouraged to register and pre-pay for their on-arrival COVID-19 PCR test prior to departing for Singapore at https://safetravel.changiairport.com .
