If you're only planning to travel once in a year, then a single trip policy could be more appropriate for you. Single trip policies do cover you to travel to multiple destinations, but you'll need to make sure that you advise us of all destinations when you get a quote.

Consideration will be given where you were medically unable to have the vaccination, and this is shown in your medical records.

Travel insurers class a "pre-existing medical condition" as an illness that you've had symptoms of or treatment for before your insurance being taken out, and before your trip has started, regardless of whether this is short-term or long-term.

Even if you've had a condition whereby your treatment has now stopped, you may still have to declare the illness as a pre-existing condition for some time afterwards. These can include lifetime conditions such as asthma, long-term illnesses like cancer or heart problems, injuries, and chronic conditions.

You should always declare pre-existing medical conditions on your travel insurance prior to taking the policy out and before your trip has started. If you don't declare these conditions, even if they're stable at the time of taking the policy out, you may end up not being covered when you travel.

If you don't declare your pre-existing medical conditions on your travel insurance policy, you run the risk of invalidating any claims you need to make that relate to your pre-existing medical condition. As such it's imperative that you declare them when taking out such a policy, and secure a medical travel insurance policy that covers existing medical conditions.

If any of your details change then you'll need to contact us on 0345 305 2622 as soon as possible to update your policy. Please note, an additional premium may apply.

If your details have changed and you travel without informing us of the changes then we may be unable to honour any claims which arise.
