Geographical areas are how the countries in the world are grouped for travel insurance purposes.
Below are the destination groups that are usually used by underwriters. When purchasing a single trip policy, you will be asked to select or input your destination country, i.e Spain, France etc.
For an annual multi trip policy, you will be asked to select one of the following groups. You will need to check the Policy Wordings or speak to a member of our contact centre for exact groupings for each underwriter.
UNITED KINGDOM - England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Depending on your policy, this can also include the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
EUROPE 1 - Europe 1 is used to define most of Europe.
EUROPE 2 - Europe 2 includes all of those countries listed in Europe 1, as well as additional countries which might incur higher medical costs.
