The luggage benefit is narrower than its headline. These are SafetyWing's published terms, including the timing and paperwork conditions.

Up to US$3,000 per insurance period, up to US$500 per item, and up to US$6,000 in your lifetime.
Only if the luggage is still missing after 10 days. You need a carrier incident report and proof of ownership for the items claimed.
No. Essential does not cover delayed luggage — only luggage that stays missing.
Electronics theft is a separate add-on, not part of the luggage benefit. Its published limits, the 24-hour police report rule, and how depreciation works are on the add-ons page.
