Travel insurance

• the insurance is intended for all students participating in short-term and long-term international mobility activities, including study stays, traineeships, summer schools, conferences, and other educational or professional activities abroad.
• for international travel MENDELU strongly recommends purchasing insurance provided by ERGO.
• Students may choose a different insurance provider; however, in accordance with Erasmus+ programme requirements, the insurance policy must cover the following areas:
  • travel insurance (including loss of or damage to luggage)
  • third-party lialibility (including personal liability insurance and, where applicable, professional indemnity insurance towards the employer),
  • accidents and serious illness (including permanent or temporary incapacity for work);
  • death (including repatriation in the case of activities carried out abroad)
• Students who arrange insurance with a provider other than ERGO should be aware that the approval process for their mobility by MENDELU may be significantly extended:
  • to verify compliance with the required insurance coverage, MENDELU reserves the right to review the submitted insurance documentation within a period of up to 45 days.
• The insurance certificate must be uploaded to the Checklist application in UIS (Student Portal → My International Mobilities)
