COVID-19 update

It is essential that you check the latest Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) advice for your destination before you travel. Our travel insurance policies do not provide cover for travel to an area where the FCDO advises against all or all but essential travel.

You will need to purchase an Enhanced COVID-19 Add On to cover you for travelling to countries in Europe against FCDO advice (if that advice relates solely to
COVID-19^ )

Stay up to date with the latest travel advice on the FCDO website. Please continue to check our FAQ's regularly.
