Mawista

Mawista is a German brand known for individually tailored health insurance for temporary stays abroad. It is a division of AP Solutions GmbH, an insurance intermediary within the Allianz Partners group, and its policies are underwritten by AWP P&C S.A., German branch. The company positions itself as a market leader in its niche, designing products for people whose insurance needs do not fit standard domestic plans. The range is organised around distinct audiences. Plans for international students and trainees cover bachelor, master and PhD candidates as well as Work & Travel programme participants. Expat products serve people relocating to Germany, while the Incoming and long-term Tourists line, including the MAWISTA Visum product, covers visitors to Germany, Switzerland and the Schengen states for stays of 8 to 183 days, which Mawista states meets embassy requirements for a Schengen visa and can be purchased before entry. Coverage can extend up to five years, and the company also offers policies for Germans living abroad. Customers can use an online product finder, manage their contracts, file claims and reach a help centre, with support offered by phone and email. Prospective customers should check the specific terms, including how pre-existing conditions are treated, before purchasing. For the Indian expat community in Germany and those planning to study, work or visit, Mawista offers an accessible way to compare cover designed around their situation and to understand the requirements of German and Schengen authorities. Its nationwide reach means the same products and service channels are available regardless of where in Germany a customer lives. Expatskey recommends reviewing policy documents and speaking directly with the provider to confirm which coverage fits your circumstances.
