Malaysia & Life Insurance
Life insurance for people travelling to Malaysia for work or a holiday, should not be a problem with most insurers.
To check your life insurance options we will ask:
- When are you travelling to Malaysia?
- Are you going to Malaysia for business or a holiday?
- When will you be starting your trip?
You will often find that you can access normal terms for life insurance with most standard insurers.
It is important to tell the insurer how long you plan to stay in Malaysia. Regular or long periods of times spent outside of the UK can change the options you have 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.
Critical illness cover should be available at standard terms with most insurance providers if you are taking a short trip to Malaysia.
A short trip in the insurance world usually means less than 30 days for a holiday, or less than a week for work.
If you plan on being in Malaysia for longer than this, it is possible that some insurers will want to know more details about the reason for your journey and your activities whilst there.
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.
Income protection may be available at normal terms if you’re travelling to Malaysia on holiday or work purposes.
If you are visiting Malaysia as part of your job, the insurer may ask you for more details as to what your exact duties will be whilst you are there.
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.
