An overview of the requirements and benefits included with this plan. If there are other plans offered by the same company, you’ll find them on the bottom of the page.
Europax offers basic Schengen-compliant health insurance at affordable daily rates. Ideal for short trips (up to 3 months) and covers travelers up to age 70. While it meets minimum visa requirements and includes personal liability, it lacks coverage for belongings and offers significantly lower medical limits than both ACS's other plans and competitor plans like Dr. Walter ProVisit-Visum or Genki Traveler.

Europax is ACS's entry-level plan designed specifically for Schengen visa requirements, offering just enough coverage to meet the minimum threshold. While it's one of the most affordable options for short Schengen trips, it provides significantly less medical coverage than most competitors in the market.

The plan is best suited for budget travelers who:
Key advantages of Europax include its availability for older travelers (up to 70), personal liability protection, and high-risk sports coverage without additional fees. However, travelers should be aware of significant limitations: no coverage for personal belongings, inability to purchase after departure, and no extension options for medical emergencies.
For budget-conscious travelers meeting only the minimum Schengen requirements for a brief trip, Europax is adequate. However, for comprehensive protection or trips longer than a few weeks, competing plans like Dr. Walter's ProVisit-Visum (unlimited coverage) or upgrading to Globe Traveller would provide substantially better coverage and value.
