What is some important information that you should know about as a high school participant?
Information for high school participants – Our recommendation!
The PROTRIP-WORLD insurance for high school participants adapts to your travel plans. You have the choice between different travel regions and you can also flexibly choose the scope of insurance:
PROTRIP-WORLD always includes a strong international health insurance. We especially recommend high school participants to supplement their insurance cover with the Comfort or Plus Package to be able to travel and work without worries. The two packages differ in the scope of the liability insurance. The Plus Package includes a higher basic insurance sum and covers, for example, the risk of losing your keys and damages arising from an act of favor (e.g. you water your neighbors’ flowers while they are away and knock over a valuable vase, OR you empty the mailbox of your out-of-town neighbors and your key breaks off).
Who is one of the largest health insurance providers in Germany?
TK attaches the greatest importance to providing perfect service to its insured in all situations of life and offers advice concerning all questions about health and well-being at any time. The TK is particularly popular with students from abroad who have to take out public insurance during their studies in Germany.
As a member of the TK, you benefit from the practical EHIC insurance card. The following video shows you how the EHIC works.
Are your plans to work abroad as an au pair?
In this case you should at least buy the Comfort Package. Liability claims within the scope of the au pair activity are insured up to 1 million Euro. This coverage is also valid for language students who live with families with children and carry out similar activities as au pairs.
However, we recommend the conclusion of the Plus Package, because it covers additional claims which can occur within the scope of an au pair activity. The key loss risk as well as damage to the host family’s property are examples of this.
How should you prepare for the interview with the embassy?
When applying for a German Visa, before the interview with the embassy, we suggest you hand it in person. The reason for this is, in case you didn’t get all the required documents, they can help you with what else you need to be able to get the Visa.
How long will it take you to open a blocked account?
Opening your blocked account only takes a few minutes. You only need to enter a few details into the application form, then you upload a copy of your identity papers and you’re almost done.
You will get the confirmation of the account opening within 24 hours. Afterwards you can transfer the minimum blocked amount. After receipt of payment (in international payment traffic this usually takes 3 to 5 working days after the money has been transferred) you will immediately get the officially approved confirmation of your blocked account for your visa application.
No paperwork, no long waiting times, no visits to the authorities. Just open your blocked account online and you will already have cleared one hurdle on the way to getting your visa – quickly and comfortably.
What do we recommend to language and exchange students?
The PROTRIP-WORLD insurance for language and exchange students adapts to your travel plans. You have the choice between different travel regions and you can also flexibly choose the scope of insurance: PROTRIP-WORLD always includes a strong international health insurance. We especially recommend language and exchange students to supplement their insurance cover with the Comfort or Plus Package to be able to travel and learn without worries. The two packages differ in the scope of the liability insurance.
The Plus Package includes a higher basic insurance sum and covers, for example, the risk of losing your keys and damages arising from an act of favor (e.g. if you are helping a friend move). The worldwide assistance helps you in an emergency with a multilingual 24-hour emergency call service. If necessary, the assistant coordinates the contact to the doctor or hospital, issues a cost transfer and organizes further services such as the medical return transport of the patient.
