Child insurance
Child insurance protects parents or guardians against loss of income and unforeseen costs due to a serious accident or serious illness of a child.
The insurance also includes disability cover that helps the child achieve financial independence in adulthood if an accident or illness causes permanent disability.
Child insurance consists of eight forms of cover. Those covers are disability cover, critical illness cover, life insurance, care cover due to a hospital stay, care cover following a hospital stay, crisis counselling, travel expenses due to operations abroad and cost of modification and assistive devices following an accident or illness.
You can take out the insurance when the child is between the ages of 1 month and until the child turns 18 years of age. The insurance is valid until the child is 20 years old and is cancelled at the next renewal after the child’s 20th birthday.
If the child insurance policyholder, under the age of 65, dies during the insurance period, VÍS pays for the insurance until the child reaches the age of 20.
