Who the insurers are

The short answer

We link to three travel insurers, always in the same order. Each is described here only in its own words, with a link to its own statement. Where an insurer is licensed matters: some visa offices and some travellers care, so it is said plainly.

The three

VisitorsCoverage

Worldwide travel cover: medical, cancellation, baggage, delays.

A US insurance agency, licensed in each of the 50 US states. Their statement

We earn through Travelpayouts.

Insurers are licensed in different places. EKTA writes its plans through an insurer licensed in the Union of Comoros; SafetyWing’s insurer is based in Puerto Rico; VisitorsCoverage is a US agency. If a visa office or an employer asks for a particular kind of insurer, check with them before you buy.

Statements read on 24 Oct 2026. We earn a commission if you buy after following these links. It never changes what this page says, and we don’t give advice.
