At Freedom Insurance we offer European single trip cover with no upper age limit, and European annual multi-trip policies up to the age of 79 years. As standard, European annual multi-trip policies will cover you to travel up to 31 days per trip. If you are aged 75 or under, this can be extended to 45 days for an additional premium. European annual cover also includes trips within the UK subject to our policy terms and conditions.
The cost of travel insurance can vary significantly depending where you are travelling to in Europe, as insurers take into the account the medical/repatriation costs for each country. Our trained insurance agents can help you look into quotes to different countries and help you build a better picture of how much each of part Europe costs for you!

It is always worth applying for or taking your UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) as in the event of a medical claim, if you make use of a reciprocal health agreement you will not have to pay the excess.
If you have a UK EHIC card, it will remain valid until the expiry date. Once it expires, you'll need to apply for a GHIC to replace it.
Apply for a UK Global Health Insurance Card.
It's important to note that the GHIC does not work in the same way as travel insurance and will not cover you for all the things that insurance does. In order to ensure you are fully covered you should use the GHIC along with your travel insurance as numerous items may not be covered.
"Excellent company and great service. I have used Freedom for many years. Peace of mind that we are covered for medical conditions and can enjoy our holiday. Very easy to use, online quotes and staff on the phones are very helpful, thanks."

If I have an Global Health Card do I still need travel insurance?
Yes, an GHIC entitles you to free or reduced cost state healthcare for medical treatment that becomes necessary during your trip, for example because of illness or an accident. But you will still need travel insurance as the GHIC only covers EU state hospital treatment and doesn’t include many other important elements of travel insurance
Stay informed
Check VISA requirements. The turbulence of negotiations with the EU will undoubtedly cause confusion when it comes to travelling to Europe. Read up on government advice or any new rulings that may affect your journey and prepare for them appropriately
Will I be charged extra for medical care after Brexit?
While Brexit will likely affect many aspects of traveling to the EU, one thing that is certain is that obtaining travel insurance to cover you while on a European trip will still be fully available at Freedom Insurance. It is always sensible to purchase your insurance when you book your holiday
Where the GHIC will provide medically provided state healthcare within the EEA and Switzerland it does not provide repatriation to the UK or the additional cost of accommodation to stay with you
Yes. In the event of a medical claim then no excess will apply in the event of a medical claim.
To apply please use the following link Global Health Insurance Card.
Medical questions vary from insurer to insurer so it's important to ensure you have declared any condition falling within our medical declaration. Some conditions are accounted for over the last two years, while others are assessed on a life-time basis. You'll find our declaration in your policy wording or during our quote journey.
Please note: If you are currently on a waiting list or aware of the need for surgery, tests, treatment or investigations we may be not be able to offer an insurance quote. Please call us on 01223 446 914 so we can explore cover options with you.
