AWP P&C S.A. – Belgian Branch, trading as Allianz Assistance
Allianz Assistance
Allianz Assistance is a travel insurance for the Luxembourg market with online purchase and 24/7 assistance.
Direct payment
The travel medical guarantee is a secondary coverage: if you are affiliated with a health mutual fund or have health insurance, you must first submit your reimbursement request to that provider before claiming from Allianz Assistance.
Geographic scope
Coverage applies while abroad (outside Belgium/Luxembourg); geographic reach depends on the chosen annual formula (Classic Protection, World Full Protection, World Gold Protection).
Insured persons must be domiciled in Belgium or Luxembourg and reside there at least 9 months per year; for persons domiciled in Luxembourg, references to "Belgium" in the general conditions are replaced by "Luxembourg".
