Household contents abroad insurance

If you’re staying abroad temporarily, either for your studies, work or travel, it is important that you feel at home while you’re there. And the basis of feeling at home is certainty. You want to be certain that you do not need to worry about your temporary place of residence; certain that you can relax; and certain that your possessions are safely stored. We can help you with the latter. Our household contents abroad insurance, means your belongings are properly insured against storm, fire, burglary and more.

You can choose to take out household contents abroad insurance separately or as extra cover within an insurance package.
