Choosing the best expat travel insurance policy

Living overseas means your travel plans don’t follow the usual pattern. Whether you’re returning home or heading off on a holiday abroad, securing the right travel insurance early can save you unnecessary stress. Instead of waiting until the last minute, we recommend arranging your cover as soon as you make your booking, ideally on the same day.

While this page does not provide personal advice, what follows is a carefully compiled list of travel-insurance companies suitable for expats. It’s not a side-by-side comparison or a recommendation and you should always carry out your own research to ensure a policy meets your individual needs.
