With our Insurance you have Worldwide Cover providing you are not going to a country with Sanctions or traveling to a country against the Home Offices’s advice. For Liability insurance, Claims must be brought against you under UK Jurisdiction for cover to operate. Personal accident cover is a benefits policy and therefore this cover will not go through a court to be operative.

As per the governement advice, we would expect members not to travel to these ‘essential travel only countries’. The insurance cover would only respond in the event they are travelling to a country, which is approved by the government at the time of travel.
If a member is away in a country that was exempt from the ‘essential travel only list’ at the time of travel, but then subsequently is added to the list and requires you to quarantine on the return to the UK, insurance coverage would not respond from the time of the updated government advice.
Please make sure you check the countries that are exempt from the “essential travel only list’ prior to travel.
