The name ELVIA has stood for security and service in the tourist sector for a good four decades. We undergo continuous improvements and exploit new opportunities for development so that this position will continue into the future. Our membership of the international Mondial Assistance Group supports us in this endeavour, and provides you with a guarantee of competence and performance world-wide.

In 1950, the Swiss Helvetia insurance group decided to set up a subsidiary company called ELVIA in Zurich, exclusively concerned with the sale of travel security. The special requirements associated with selling travel insurance policies - in association with travel bookings - called for a product and marketing strategy that was different from normal insurance sales.

ELVIA Reiseversicherungs-Gesellschaft was established as the baggage insurer for SBB (Swiss Railways) - with one big idea in mind: that travel and tourism would boom in the future. By now, ELVIA insures about 4 million Swiss citizens every year.

Because of our membership to the international Mondial Assistance Group we changed our name from ELVIA to Mondial Assistance (Schweiz) in November 2008. As the leading provider in the travel insurance sector within Switzerland, Mondial Assistance (Schweiz) offers you security and service while you travel.

With a market share of 80% with the tour operators, we are the leading provider in the Swiss travel insurance sector. We are known for our quality and innovations, achieving a turnover of CHF 64 million with approximately 92,000 insurance cases per year.
