If you have asthma, you will need to declare it on your travel insurance policy as a pre-existing condition.
With proper travel insurance in place that covers asthma, if you have a medical emergency while you’re away, or if you need to cancel your holiday – then you’ll be well protected.
What’s better is that you’ll be covered for things like lost baggage or stolen passports too.
With 1 in 20 people claiming on their Annual Travel Insurance in 2018*, it’s worth making sure that you’re properly covered.

It’s important you declare asthma and any other pre-existing medical condition you may have, when taking out a policy with us.
You can declare your medical condition through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your medical travel insurance policy. This will avoid large medical bills if you need treatment in another country. Failure to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy should you need to claim.
