You decide which policy meets your needs, we won't try to influence your decision. But before you buy a new policy, check you're not already covered. For example, you could have cover with your bank.



Your trip

What type of cover do you need?

If you're planning more than one trip, an annual multi-trip policy could be cheaper.

Single trip policies offer cover for one short-duration holiday or trip.

Annual multi-trip policies cover multiple short-duration trips throughout the year.

Backpacker offers cover for a single trip usually spanning many months.

Medical details

Do any of the travellers have, or have any of the travellers had any pre-existing medical conditions or is anyone on a waiting list for treatment or investigation?

A pre-existing medical condition is a condition or injury that you've been diagnosed with and have had or are currently receiving treatment for. Examples include high blood pressure, diabetes, anxiety and broken bones. We'll ask for more details about them later.

You must let us know the medical history of everyone on this policy to make sure you've got the right cover for the trip.

It may not always cost more to cover your medical conditions. The insurer may not pay for any medical treatments you claim for or costs to get home, if its for something you did not tell us about.
