GVN Travel Insurance Package

Yes; each and every claim lodged and recoverable under the Policy will attract an excess of US $500.

You are covered for 30 days (value of US$197), but you will need to send us your dates of travel in order for us to organize your policy. You can do this at http://www.volunteer.org.nz/insurance/details.php. If you would like to extend your coverage beyond a month, please purchase additional time at http://www.volunteer.org.nz/insurance/extensions.php.

Yes, subject to the terms and conditions of the policy. See Coverage Section 5 of the policy for more details.

The age limit for insurance coverage is 85 years for Sections 1-11. If the insured person is under 18 years of age, then the compensation paid for Insured Events 1 to 19 under Section 1 (Personal Accident and/or Sickness) will be 10% of the sum insured set out in the policy schedule unless otherwise specified.

Emergency medical evacuations are covered subject to the conditions in the policy details. You will be given a 24-hour call-free number to reach the Insurer in order to check on your eligibility for cover in case of an emergency. See Coverage Section 2 of the policy for more details.

Unfortunately this insurance may only be purchased by GVN volunteers. This policy does not cover a volunteer's non-volunteering spouse or dependent child/children.

As with any overseas traveling, insurance is recommended. For the China, Costa Rica, and South Dakota programs it is compulsory to have travel insurance which also includes medical or health insurance as part of the policy.
