  • As featured in:

To be eligible to purchase travel insurance as an Irish resident, your home address: 

  • Must be in the Republic of Ireland 
  • Must be your principal, permanent, residential address, where you have lived during the 12 months prior to buying your policy 

Where a traveller has not lived in the Republic of Ireland in the 12 months prior to purchasing travel insurance, they are not eligible, unfortunately. 

While it is not necessary to have lived at this address for the entire 12 months prior to purchase, a traveller must have resided there at some point in the 12 months. 

However, our travel insurance is available to Irish residents already travelling outside of Ireland where the eligibility criteria are met. Our flexible travel insurance can be purchased online in minutes, using your debit/credit card. However waiting periods may apply, so please check the policy wording before purchasing. 
 
This is only a summary of cover and does not include the full terms, conditions, limits, and exclusions of the policy. You should read your policy wording in full, so you understand what is and isn’t covered. If you are unsure about your level of travel cover, please contact us for help.
