Belize & Life Insurance
Belize is a beautiful country with a great wealth of history and natural sights, to delight travellers.
For most people, travelling to Belize for a short holiday will have no impact on their ability to arrange life insurance. But it is always best to double check.
To find the right life insurance options we will ask:
- When are you travelling to Belize?
- Are you travelling to Belize for a holiday or for work?
- How long will you be in Belize for?
- Will you be doing anything like scuba diving or sailing whilst in Belize?
Most life insurance applications will be accepted at standard terms if your travel to Belize is less than 30 days for a holiday, or less than a week for work.
You can find that options in the UK market can become trickier if you are in Belize for longer time periods than this. Don’t worry, if need be we can look at international providers for you.
If you plan on scuba diving or sailing whilst in Belize, it’s a good idea to let us know when we discuss your life insurance application, as it could alter the insurer that will give you the best price for life insurance.
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.
Short holidays of less than 30 days, or work trips of less than one week, should not have an influence on your critical illness cover application. Belize is not currently seen as a high risk for causing claims on this type of policy.
If you are planning on a longer trip, you might still be able to get critical illness cover with a UK insurer, but it might be best to speak with international providers, which we will do on your behalf.
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.
Insurers are very particular about income protection eligibility and whether you are in the UK or not. Short trips should be fine. Longer trips to Belize might mean that you don’t meet the insurers criteria for being classed as a UK resident. If that is the case there are international providers, or you can wait until you return to the UK from Belize.
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.
