Travel Insurance Israel - High Risk Voyager
Israel is widely regarded as a jewel of the middle east. With the bustling streets of Jerusalem as well as the beaches and world-renowned nightlife of Tel-Aviv or “The Non-Stop City” as it’s also known! However, travel to Israel isn’t without risk due to the well documented tensions at Gaza and the Syria border with the Assad regime and Iranian Military Forces. Further to these tensions there is currently a heightened risk of terrorism in Israel, including areas frequently visited by tourists. Therefore, it is extremely important to buy travel insurance for Israel, with sufficient travel cover, before you go. This is because many ‘standard’ cheap travel insurance policies will exclude travel to certain areas of Israel. Fortunately, High Risk Voyager Israel Travel Insurance can often provide travel cover to these areas where other travel insurance policies can't.
Further to the increased risks mentioned above, Israel has no reciprocal healthcare agreement with the UK or the European Union. This means that you will not be able to use your EHIC in case of a medical emergency whilst visiting Israel. Consequently, you will be required to pay all costs associated with any emergency medical treatment you receive if you do not have the correct travel insurance for Israel.
As of April 25th 2019, The Foreign Common Wealth Office (FCO) advise “against all travel” to Gaza, The Sheba’a Farms and Ghajjar as well anywhere within 500m of the border with Lebanon (the ‘Blue Line’) east of Metula including the northern edge of the town. Tensions with Syria mean that they also advise “against all travel” anywhere east of Route 98 along the Syrian border. As certain areas in Israel represent higher risk and are more dangerous than others it is essential to get travel insurance for Israel. These travel advisories can change from day to day, so Click here to see the latest FCO travel advice for Israel.
Fortunately, High Risk Voyager Israel Travel Insurance can provide cover to the areas mentioned above and more as it is a specialist travel insurance solution for high risk and frontline locations that can provide cover even to areas the FCO advise “against all but essential travel” or “all travel”. This FCO rating would usually invalidate a normal ‘standard’ type travel insurance policy.
