Term Insurance for NRIs in UAE

The United Arab Emirates has long been a big attraction not just as a tourist spot but also to migrants, especially from India. Excellent civic amenities, infrastructure, standard of living and high-quality healthcare services make the UAE a major attraction. Not just the affluents, but the last few years have seen many professionals, scientists, and researchers shift base to the UAE.1 For many NRIs choosing UAE as their destination, leaving home means being away from their loved ones. The physical distance, however, does not mean leaving financial security behind.

 In such a scenario, affordable premiums, high coverage, and customised policies make term plans a cost-effective decision. It is estimated that buying term plans in India can be almost 30% to 50% cheaper for NRIs in the UAE.2 Term plans for NRIs in the UAE can suit specific needs. Whether you are buying a life insurance plan for the first time or it is an additional tool to safeguard your family’s future, a term plan can easily fit in. It can be quite helpful for your family in covering the financial obligations that may arise with your unfortunate absence. Read on to know and understand how term insurance for NRIs in UAE be a wise financial decision. 3

Types of Term Insurance Plans Available to the NRIs of the UAE

Be it India or abroad, different individuals have different situations and different needs. With term plans, NRIs in the UAE get the option to choose from several plan options. Make sure you understand the different types of term plans so that you can choose the right one.

The following types of plans are available:4

  1. Level term plans – these are the basic term plans where the sum assured remains constant throughout the policy term.
  2. Increasing term plans – under these plans, the sum assured increases during the policy term either by a specified percentage or by a specific amount.
  3. Decreasing term plans – under these plans, the sum assured reduces during the policy term. These plans are usually issued with loans wherein the decreasing sum assured corresponds to the decreasing value of the outstanding loan amount.
  4. Term plans with return of premium– normal term insurance plans usually do not pay any benefit if the term expires and the life assured is alive. However, under these plans, the premiums paid during the policy term are refunded back on maturity. 

How does term insurance for NRIs in the UAE work?

The way a term plan works for NRIs in the UAE is quite similar to how it works in India. However, some of these plans can offer you features that are specifically suited to your needs as an NRI in the UAE. Keep in mind that when you choose term insurance, certain components go into the making of a plan. These include:

  1. The sum assured
  2. Policy term
  3. Premium paying term
  4. Premium paying frequency
  5. Optional riders, if any

Based on these details, your age and other risk factors, the premium is determined. You pay the premium over the chosen premium paying term and in the selected frequency.

During the policy tenure, if the life assured passes away, the death benefit is paid. On the other hand, if the policy matures and the life assured is alive, no maturity benefit is paid. However, if you have opted for the return of premium term plan, your premiums would be refunded on maturity. 

Reasons to Buy Term Insurance for NRIs in the UAE

As an NRI, you would want to safeguard the future of your loved ones, whether they are in India or abroad with you. There are multiple reasons that drive the interest of NRIs, especially the ones in the UAE, in buying term insurance plans in India. Some of these may be:

They can undergo medical tests at the available medical facility in the UAE and share the reports over mail, or undergo telemedical as required by the insurer.
