Travel Against Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Advice

If you are planning to travel to a region or country against British FCDO advice, please note most standard retail travel insurance schemes, including our own CI Direct Scheme, will not permit travel contrary to FCDO advice. However, we offer a specialist policy purely to areas against FCDO advice. All enquiries must however be dealt with on an individual basis.

Full details of the policy cover may be found in the Key Facts Policy Summary, Insurance Product Information Document (IPID) and Policy Wording.

Example premiums:

• Up to 17 days cover for travel to a country in Europe against FCDO advice (e.g. France) would be £60.00 inclusive of tax for individuals under 74 years of age at date of commencement of the insurance.
• Up to 17 days cover for travel to a country in Europe against FCDO advice (e.g. France) for a family (as defined) would be £64.50 inclusive of tax.
• Up to 17 days cover for travel on a worldwide basis against FCDO advice (e.g. the USA) would be £60.00 for individuals up to 64 years of age inclusive of tax, or for individuals over 64 but under 75 years of age at date of commencement of the insurance £110.40 inclusive of tax.
