Seychelles & Life Insurance
When applying for life insurance, the Seychelles is a country some insurers might want to know more about. A short holiday to Seychelles will probably not affect your life insurance premiums, but an extended stay or a work trip might.
To check your life insurance options we will ask:
- Where are you travelling to in the Seychelles?
- How long are you going to be in the Seychelles for?
- Is your trip for work or leisure?
Most short trips to the Seychelles won’t affect your life insurance premiums. Insurers are constantly watching different countries to see if anything is changing in the political landscape, any civil unease, or other factors that could make your trip to Seychelles more risky.
Where there is some uncertainty over safety of travel to a country, some insurers might want to delay your life insurance application, until you have returned to the UK. However, this isn’t always the case and at the moment the Seychelles is generally considered to be fine to travel to.
If you have found that applying for life insurance has not gone as planned, due to your travel, we have a lot of insurers that we can speak to for you, including some that are specifically good for travel disclosures.
Our award winning advisers are here to give you peace of mind with the right life insurance policy, so that if the worst happens, your loved ones will be taken care of.
British citizens who have moved abroad can often still access life insurance and critical illness cover in the UK. There are specific rules that you must follow to be eligible for new life insurance and critical illness policies, and we are here to strip out the jargon and get you the cover that you need.
Critical illness cover pays out a cash lump sum of money, if you are diagnosed with a medical condition that is listed in the insurer’s claims set e.g. cancer, heart attack, stroke.
Unless you are travelling for a long period of time, your critical illness cover should be offered at normal terms if you are taking a short trip (this is often 30 days or less for a holiday).
Our expert advisers are trained to find the critical illness policy that matches you and your needs, so that if you are diagnosed with a critical illness, you can focus upon you rather than worrying about money.
Income protection pays you a replacement of your monthly income, if you are unable to work due to ill health.
Travelling to the Seychelles for a short period, for work or leisure, shouldn’t have an affect on your income protection policy. For income protection, insurers like to be crystal clear that you are a UK resident, working in the UK and paying UK tax. So if you are spending a longer time in the Seychelles, you can find that some insurers can be uncertain about offering cover.
If absolute need be there are some international income protection options that you could consider. However, most of the time income protection should be available to you without any concerns.
Protecting your income is one of the most important things that you can do to protect your financial future and our award winning advisers are here to sort it for you.
