Allianz Global Assistance Coverage and COVID-19
If you must travel while Canadian government COVID-19 advisories are in effect for your destination, our COVID-19 Insurance and Assistance Plan is available to help protect you. It is important to ensure that you also have emergency hospital and medical coverage in place through your ARTA plan for unexpected situations.
Your health and safety remain our priority. As with every trip, travellers are encouraged to review and follow Government of Canada travel advisories at travel.gc.ca/travelling/advisories.
Due to the pandemic, also be sure to check any requirements for returning to Canada using the ArriveCAN app. Learn more at
