Dunno whether any travel insurance covers this.
Be Careful at the Airports, Be careful when ever you give your passport to someone. **The pass port can be easily tampered and can create trouble to you.
At the time of the passenger's departure, if the passenger is not looking at the officer while he is stamping the exit, the officer very cleverly can tear away one of the page from the passport. When the passenger leaves the immigration counter, the case is reported on his computer terminal with full details.
Subject to the passenger's period of stay abroad, his income and standing etc., the price to get rid of the problem is settled. Please advise every passenger to be careful at the airport. Whenever they hand over the passport to the counters, or immigration or the customs, they must be vigilant, should not remove eyes from the passport even if the officer in front tries to divert their attention.
All the passengers traveling must be aware of this conspiracy. On interviewing some of them, none of them was aware of what had happened. They don't know why, when and who tore away the page from the middle of the passport. One can imagine the sufferings of such people
