Congratulations on your visa! 🎉

Please, my appointment is in a few weeks. The AXA Mansard travel insurance I purchased is quoted in USD instead of EUR. Was yours the same, or did you have it in euros? Should I leave it that way, or request that they change the currency to euros?

@Lekan2509 I’d really appreciate your input on this.

Thanks!

Go to google and search for Axa mansard Nigeria, go to the website that pops up and look for travel insurance. The amount will be quoted in naira and will be significantly cheaper.

Thanks, @Lekan2348

What I meant is that the cover is quoted as USD 35,000, whereas I thought it was supposed to be EUR 30,000.

Please, is it acceptable if the policy is in USD, or should I go back to AXA and request that they change it to EUR?

Yes you do, just present your case well and show document evidence. I think if you have a 9-5 it will help. Also request for 7 days trip at maximum.

If it is quoted in USD it is okay as far as it covers the 30,000 euro minimum requirement after converting. $35,000 would not cover it. There are plans that cover up to $150,000. Select those ones, the price different is not that much. Don’t go and leave you visa application to chance because of extra 10,000 naira o
