Obtaining a Schengen Visa for Uzbek Citizens Requires Strict Compliance with European Health Insurance Standards. EUROASIA Insurance offers tailored programs that not only fully comply with all consular requirements but also provide comprehensive protection throughout your stay in Europe.
Schengen Agreement Requirements for Health Insurance
European legislation sets strict criteria for health insurance, which are mandatory for all Schengen visa applicants.
Key Legal Requirements
Minimum coverage amount: €30,000 — a non-negotiable requirement under EU regulations, covering emergency medical aid, hospitalization, and medical evacuation.
Territorial coverage: Must include all Schengen countries — the 27 Member States, plus Liechtenstein, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and France’s overseas departments.
Validity period: Insurance must cover the entire planned stay, starting from the day of entry and ending on the day of exit (inclusive).
Mandatory Coverage Components
Emergency Medical Treatment — Includes ambulance services, diagnostics, urgent procedures, and patient stabilization.
Hospitalization & Inpatient Care — Full coverage for hospital stays, treatments, surgeries, anesthesia, medical equipment, and medications.
Medical Evacuation — Enables transport to one’s home country or the nearest suitable medical facility by land, air, or sea, depending on medical and geographic conditions.
Repatriation in Case of Death — Covers necessary documentation, preparation, and transfer of remains back to the country of origin.
Additional Consular Requirements
Insurer recognition: The company must be licensed and accredited by European consulates. EUROASIA Insurance holds all relevant licenses and approvals.
Direct billing: Preferred by many consulates, meaning the insurer pays hospitals directly without requiring upfront payment from the insured.
24/7 multilingual support: Essential for some consulates. EUROASIA offers round‑the‑clock support in Uzbek, Russian, and English via call‑center at 1147.

Policy Issuance & Documentation
Required documents for consulates:
An original policy printed on EUROASIA letterhead, clearly stamped and signed.
A free-of-charge insurance certificate in English (provided on request).
Financial statements proving the insurer’s stability are available if requested.
Visa-Type Specific Notes:
Tourist visas — standard documentation, with insurance covering entire stay.
Business visas — require business invitation, corporate or VIP coverage recommended.
Visitor visas — must have invitation and possibly enhanced coverage.
Transit visas — short-term insurance covering the transit period, meeting full coverage and territorial conditions.
Practical Recommendations
Factors in choosing a plan:
Destination: Countries with high healthcare costs (e.g., Switzerland, Norway, Denmark) may warrant higher coverage.
Trip duration: Longer stays increase risk and may require more protection.
Traveler’s age: Older travelers face greater risks; higher coverage is advisable.
Trip nature: Active tourism may necessitate extra coverage compared to standard business trips.
Tailored advice:
Students or young travelers: go with the ECONOMY plan for short trips or CLASSIC for longer stays. Make sure you can extend if plans change.
Families: CLASSIC is a good fit, especially for child‑friendly medical transport coverage.
Business travelers: CLASSIC works well; EXCLUSIVE or VIP corporate plan is best for high‑stakes trips.
Senior travelers: Opt for maximum coverage given the elevated risk profile.
