Sending children to study abroad is an exciting life milestone filled with new opportunities and growth, but parents and families often harbor hidden worries—whether about illness while abroad or unexpectedly high medical costs that could strain unplanned finances. To address these concerns, Krung Thai Panich Insurance Company Limited (KPI) and Krung Thai Bank have designed the GEN U INTER insurance plan for overseas education, built on the philosophy "Trust turned into care," to transform family anxiety into reassurance throughout the journey to success.

GEN U INTER covers three core protection dimensions:

1. Global Medical Care: Medical treatment coverage up to 5 million baht (covering both accidents and illness), continuous care coverage up to 500,000 baht if returning to Thailand for follow-up treatment, and 24-hour emergency assistance with international medical evacuation.

2. Travel & Property Protection: Coverage for lost or delayed baggage and flight cancellations or delays, and theft protection for personal belongings in overseas accommodation.

3. Financial & Family Support: Education fund reimbursement up to 500,000 baht if unforeseen circumstances prevent continued study, daily compensation up to 5,000 baht for parent travel and accommodation if the student requires hospitalization for more than 5 days, and up to 100,000 baht protection if something happens to parents in Thailand.

Why is GEN U INTER essential? Because life abroad is about learning and growth. The plan supports lifestyle and manages risks comprehensively at affordable rates. It offers 24/7 premium care regardless of time zone, flexible coverage from 3 to 25 months, and premiums starting at just 6,000 baht for 3-5 million baht in protection. Enrollment is simple and quick—parents and students can access this premium coverage easily at any Krung Thai Bank branch nationwide or online at https://krungthai.com/
