Overseas Travel Insurance
Our university requires that all students, faculty and staff members who travel overseas for university-related activities such as study abroad, business trips, research activities, and participation in academic conferences, subscribe to overseas travel insurance in preparation for emergencies.
Standards for overseas travel insurance
As a guideline, you should take out overseas travel insurance that provides coverage for "medical and rescue expenses" of 30 million yen or more.
(For students, the "Gakkensai Supplemental Overseas Study Insurance (Supplemental Maritime Insurance)" below meets this condition.)
student | In principle, all members must join the "Futai Kaigaku" program. For details, please see the following website. |
Faculty and Staff | We ask that each person take out insurance that provides compensation for "medical relief expenses" of 30 million yen or more. |
(Reference 1) IR&C Emergency Operation Service
In order to strengthen crisis management support during travel and stay, our university has joined the overseas rescue operation service "Japan IR&C Corporation Anshin Support" provided by Japan IR&C Corporation. Japan IR&C Corporation is a company specializing in overseas crisis management that has a basic contract with Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology and Technology, and the enrollment procedures for each traveler are carried out at the university based on the submission of a "Study Abroad Request" and an "Overseas Travel Notification" for students, and the submission of business trip procedure documents for faculty and staff at each department. (The university also covers the enrollment fee for IR&C Corporation Anshin Support.)
While overseas travel insurance covers medical expenses and other financial costs related to emergency response, IR&C Corporation Emergency Operation Service provides rescue operations in the event of an emergency.
