Do I need travel insurance for Europe?

While exploring all that Europe has to offer, it’s important to protect yourself from unexpected mishaps. Although it’s not a legal requirement, 29% of people have made at least one claim* on their travel insurance, so it can be a lifeline when something does go wrong. 

 

Take out holiday insurance for Europe as soon as you book your trip and you’ll be covered for:

 

✔   cancelling or cutting your holiday short
✔   medical repatriation
✔   travel disruptions and delays
✔   lost or damaged baggage
✔   lost or stolen cash

 

You’ll need to let us know about any pre-existing medical conditions you have when you take out your policy. This way, you’ll be covered in case of any medical emergencies related to that condition – and you can rest assured knowing your policy is tailored just for you. 

 

What type of insurance policy do I need for Europe?

 

There are two different types of policy to choose from for your European holiday.

 

Single trip travel insurance is ideal if you’re going on a one-off holiday. 

 

Annual multi-trip travel insurance may be a better fit if you’re planning on taking more than one holiday in a year. There are five different levels of regional cover you can choose in total, with two you can choose for Europe.

 

It’s really important that you choose the right region to cover your holiday destinations. Find out more in our explainer to single trip vs annual multi-trip insurance. 

 

Before you travel you should also check that The Foreign Office (FCDO) say it’s safe to travel to your destination, and any government advice, safety guidelines, and entry requirements.

Stay covered abroad: the importance of EHIC/GHIC and travel insuranceWhat our expert says…

"<p>Don&#39;t forget your European Health Insurance (EHIC) or Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC)! With a GHIC or EHIC, you&#39;ll get discounted or free state healthcare in 27 EU countries, along with Switzerland and Montenegro. Other unexpected costs can come up if something on your trip doesn&#39;t go to plan, which is why it&#39;s important to have travel insurance too.</p> "
