Dominican Republic & Life Insurance
The Dominican Republic is one of the most, or the most, visited holiday destination in the Caribbean. With it’s gorgeous beaches, climate and culture, it is seen as a standout out location for a well deserved rest.
When visiting the Dominican Republic it is very likely that you will be able to access life insurance with normal terms. This would mean no premium increases or exclusions.
To check your life insurance options we will ask:
- When will you be travelling to the Dominican Republic?
- How long is your stay in the Dominican Republic?
- Are you travelling to the Dominican Republic for work or leisure?
Going on a short holiday to the Dominican Republic is unlikely to have any affect on your life insurance application. In the insurance world a short holiday is usually a trip of less than 30 days. Even work trips up to a week shouldn’t change your options for life insurance.
If you spend over 30 days in a single holiday trip to the Dominican Republic, or more than a week for work, there may be some extra work needed to find the right insurer for you. This is to do with insurers eligibility criteria and them being able to assess longer term risks at the location you are travelling to.
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.
Critical Illness cover should be offered at standard prices when travelling to the Dominican Republic. The amount of time you spend in the Dominican Republic will determine the best insurer for you.
People travelling to the Dominican Republic regularly for work, can find that trips change who will be the best insurer for you. The insurer will need to know details about your trip to the Dominican Republic such as your job tasks whilst there, confirmation of tax residency etc.
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.
For people travelling to the Dominican Republic income protection is normally going to be easy to arrange.
A key eligibility criteria for income protection is that you are a UK resident and, in most cases, that you are UK tax resident. Assuming that this is the case for you and your travelling to the Dominican Republic for a short trip, you should have options for income protection with most UK insurers.
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.
