Making a Claim in Minsk
Tips for smooth claims processing
Documentation Required: Medical reports, receipts, proof of travel, police report if applicable for theft/accidents
- Keep all medical reports and receipts (recibos) from Spanish healthcare providers, as these are essential for claims processing—documentation requirements are straightforward in Minsk
- If you experience theft or accidents requiring police involvement, obtain a 'denuncia' (police report) immediately, as insurers commonly request this documentation
- Save proof of your travel dates, including boarding passes and accommodation confirmations, to support your claim timeline
- Keep all receipts and request English-language medical reports. Public hospital documentation may be in Russian only, so consider having it translated before filing your claim
- Claims processing in Minsk is generally easy, but submit documentation promptly while details are fresh and all receipts are organized
