Travel insurance with COVID cover

You should be covered to visit most destinations across the globe, as long as the country you’ve chosen is safe to visit.

To check if your destination is safe to visit, take a look at the FCDO’s advice.

If you travelled against the FCDO’s advice, your policy would become invalid and wouldn’t cover you if you needed to claim. Even if advice changes while you’re on holiday, you won’t be covered if your destination was listed as unsafe when you travelled.

If you or someone you are travelling with gets COVID-19 contact your travel provider to see if you can change the dates of your holiday.

If you can rearrange your holiday, you’ll need to update your travel insurance policy with the new travel dates^^. Log in to your My Staysure account to do this yourself online, or contact us.

If you have had a positive test result within 14 days of travel and you are not able to rearrange your trip, you may be able to make a claim on your travel insurance policy*.

While you can’t yet declare COVID-19 as a pre-existing condition, it’s important to let us know about any other pre-existing medical conditions you may have. Don’t worry, you can still be covered for cancellation and medical expenses if you develop coronavirus at home or abroad.

You can declare your conditions through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, you can complete the medical screening over the phone. Find out what you need to declare on your travel insurance.

Covering your conditions will help you to avoid large medical bills if you need treatment abroad - including treatment for COVID-19. Failure to declare any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy if you need to claim.

The same level of cover applies for both adults and children with our travel insurance policies.

Each named person over five years old must have had all vaccinations offered to them to be covered for COVID-19 related claims. This includes any booster vaccinations.

Your child may also be covered if they can’t have the vaccine due to a medical exemption.
