There is required insurance yes, but it is not really TRAVEL insurance. It is supposed to cover you for the cost of medical bills and quarantine if you test positive for Covid while on island. Based on the extremely limited coverage ($125 a day) if you do test positive, it most likely will not cover even your lodging. Also SUPPOSED to cover medical evac for Covid, but the coverage is limited to $25,000, which there is no way that would cover medical evac for Covid. You purchase it as part of getting your EHAS approval. If you want travel insurance that covers anything worthlwhile, you should get your own travel insurance policy. The one through SXM is just a money grab for them, which they basically admitted as such at one point, considering they want to make it PERMANENT.
