Can a Canadian citizen purchase travel insurance in Mexico for a trip through the US?

Updated Oct 30, 2025
Answer provided by a licensed Insurance advisorLicensed U.S. Insurance Specialist at VisitorsCoverage
Yes, a Canadian citizen can purchase travel medical insurance while in Mexico that will provide coverage during their travel through the United States back to Canada. Travel medical insurance plans are designed to cover new illnesses, injuries, or accidents that occur after the policy's effective date and while the insured is outside their home country. However, these plans typically do not cover preventative care services such as voluntary checkups and screenings.
