Do I need travel insurance for the United Arab Emirates?

While it’s not yet safe to travel to Dubai, Abu Dhabi or other places in the United Arab Emirates, buying your travel insurance now means one less thing to sort once it’s safe to go on holiday again.

With travel insurance that covers coronavirus, you can travel with peace of mind. COVID-19 cover is included in all new policies at no extra cost.You can be covered for cancellation and medical expenses if you are diagnosed with COVID-19 at home or abroad.

Travel insurance is there to protect you from the unexpected while you’re away. From flight delays or lost luggage, to a medical emergency needing to be flown home by air ambulance, is it really worth risking?

With the right travel insurance for Dubai, Abu Dhabi and UAE, you can travel with the peace of mind you deserve.

Isn’t it worth doing right?

Know before you go

Before you travel, always check:

  • The Foreign Office (FCDO) say it’s safe to travel to your destination.
  • Your destination’s government advice, safety guidelines and entry requirements.

Important: FCDO travel advice and travel rules issued by the government are two separate pieces of advice.

Excellent

"Very easy to find and go through quote and questions online. Price was better that the competition. Felt like I was human, particularly when answering questions on pre-existing medical conditions. Some other insurers make you feel that you are a third rate citizen because you have medical conditions."
"Quick and easy to navigate the site and great prices, we always use this company and won't be changing, great value"
"I was unexpectedly diagnosed with an illness that was thankfully cured by surgery. I travel a lot and was unsure how this would affect travel insurance. I phoned Staysure and was given clear and helpful information, asked quite detailed health questions and was finally given a very competitive quote for an annual policy with the option to pay monthly. Very efficient service, great company to deal with."

To be covered, you need to have received all doses of the COVID vaccine that you’ve been offered, including any booster jabs.

You can also be covered if you can’t have the vaccine due to a medical exemption.

If you have refused any doses of the COVID vaccine or any booster jab, then you won’t be covered for COVID related claims.

Healthcare isn’t free in Dubai and the UAE and can be expensive. Visitors may be prevented from using healthcare services if they don’t have UAE travel insurance to cover the cost of medical assistance.

With tailored cover, you can be confident that if you have a medical emergency in Dubai, you’ll have our support.

When choosing our Annual Travel Insurance, pick Region 3 to include the UAE in your travel plans.

It’s important that you check with the FCDO that UAE is safe to travel, before you set off and while you’re away. If the government advise against all but essential travel to UAE, and you choose to go on holiday against travel advice, your policy would become invalid and you wouldn’t be covered if you needed to claim.

If you’re worried about travelling to Dubai or other regions of the United Arab Emirates, then having the right travel insurance can make sure your holiday is protected.

Sometimes, the reason for not being able to follow through on your travel plans can unfortunately be due to terrorism.

There are times when the Government acknowledges and declares an act of terrorism, but has not yet issued advice on travel. When you’re due to travel this situation can be scary, especially if you believe you could be in danger.

With our optional Terrorism Cancellation Cover, available on Comprehensive Travel Insurance policies, you’ll be covered if:

  • The event is officially declared** as an act of terrorism.
  • The event occured within 42 days of your date of travel.
  • You’re planning on staying within a 40 miles radius of the event’s location.
