Can I get travel insurance that covers COVID-19?
Yes, you can still compare and purchase travel insurance with COVID-19 cover from Confused.com. All of our providers offer emergency medical treatment and repatriation (returning to the UK) for COVID-19 claims.
A number of our providers offer further COVID-19 related cover such as holiday cancellations and accommodation costs and denied boarding. Be sure to check the details of your policy carefully as different providers will offer different policy enhancements.
It's important to note that if you travel against advice from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), you won't be covered by any travel insurance policy you buy.
What’s travel insurance?
Travel insurance usually covers you if your travel plans are cancelled, if your items are lost or stolen or if you need to pay medical expenses while abroad or in the UK. It could also cover any pre-existing medical conditions you may have.
Travel insurance is particularly important now the UK has left the EU. For UK residents, once your European Health Card expires you won’t be covered in Europe. And in terms of coronavirus, ensuring you’re as protected as can be while away is paramount.
There are different levels of cover available:
- Single cover for a one-off holiday
- An annual policy if you’ve got lots of trips
- Add-ons like winter sports or cruise cover
- Business cover options
Our service is free and compares a wide range of trusted household names. Confused.com is an intermediary and receives commission from theidol.com if you decide to buy through our website which is based on a percentage of the total annual premium. We pride ourselves on impartiality and independence – therefore we don't promote any one insurance provider over another.
