While not all processes are standard, there are some steps that you can count on during the process of getting life insurance.
These days it is most common to follow an online application process, but regardless of the process that you follow, you will first need to get a quote. There are usually medical questions to answer during this step, and some companies might require a more detailed medical history.
You will likely be offered different options based on your death benefit needs and your medical history. Some options will have guaranteed premiums, but others might not. Be sure that you have established premiums accurately and will still be financially secure based on your current annual salary with the premiums that you settle on.
With any plan, you will need to pay regular premiums for the duration of your contract term. Anything like travel obligations for your work should be declared, and you should be aware that certain countries are listed as “excluded countries” for expat life insurance.
