A lot of people forget to buy travel insurance, and only remember when it is too late. Many companies don't allow you to purchase travel insurance once you've already departed, but luckily for you, 1Cover does under our Residents Already Overseas Policy.
1Cover is now able to offer comprehensive cover to residents who are already overseas, and who intend to return back home at the end of their trip. There are a few things you need to be aware of before you purchase this policy:
- You are unable to purchase extra cover for pre-existing medical conditions on this policy.
- There is a waiting period of seven days starting from the first day of the policy, during which you are not covered for claims related to medical expenses for any injury or illness. After this seven-day period, you will have full cover.
- This cover is only available for customers under 75 years of age
The level of cover available under this policy is the same as our comprehensive policy. This means you can not only have unlimited medical coverage, but you will also have cover for your luggage, cancellation fees, theft of cash, travel delay and a range of other benefits.
We have been trusted by over 2 million customers worldwide to look after them when they travel. We offer all our customers 24 hour Emergency Assistance, 365 days a year.
