Travel Insurance Travelling Abroad

[ChoyJo]

This is funny! However, I remembered our teacher discussing this in our political science subject. I just can't remember it...

Perhaps one of our law practitioners can shed a light on this topic. You are on a plane and you give birth in US territory, what is the citizenship. What if you're in the middle of pacific ocean?

US AirSpace = US Citizen

this is private international law.

the philippines follows JUS SANGUINIS (right of blood) by virtue of which citizenship is determined not by place of birth but by the citizenship of the parents.

on the other hand, the US adheres to the principle of JUS SOLI (law of the soil). under this concept, citizenship of a person is determined by the place where he was born.

so, if a Filipina gives birth in the US territory, the baby actually has dual citizenship. in the eyes of philippine law, he is a filipino, but to the americans, he is american.

if he was born in the middle of the pacific, let us apply the principle of exterritoriality. airplane is an extension of the country whose flag it flies. so, it depends. if it is PAL, then he is a filipino. if american airlines, he's american.

Is it too risky not to get travel insurance if staying in the US for 5 months (as tourist)? My Tita is asking me, personally I would get, pero I'm wondering if it's normal not to get?

If the destination country is too costly if may medical emergency, much better if kukuha nalang.
Magkano additional expense if with insurance?

My experience was in Japan.
Buti nalang hindi ko napa cancel insurance sa ticket.
Was able to claim with PAL for the medical expenses I paid in Japan.
Reimbursement method nga lang yung sa akin, hiningi lang nila mga resibo ng clinic bill including the medicine receipts.
No questions asked regarding sa receipt, naka nihongo lahat, siguro dahil hindi agad maintindihan at wala pang google translate noon.

No idea if ano process if malakihan na ang amount and insurance na dapat mag directly pay instead of paying the hospital in advance.

Get one po kamo.
Mura lang naman travel insurance.
Annual one should cover it.
Di na pi ba hinahanap yan for visa application or sa immigration?

Only Schengen countries require travel insurance for visa application.

Cathy, get ka na annual coverage, mura lang yan

Our default is complete comprehensive travel insurance.
