The UK's Most Trusted Travel Insurance Provider
Home » Annual Travel Insurance

Annual Travel Insurance covers you for selected countries and destinations for one year. You choose your preferred cover region, and you’re covered for any trip within that region throughout the year.

This type of insurance can cover all pre-existing medical conditions, too, allowing you to travel with complete peace of mind.

What is Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance – and why do you need it?

Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance is a type of policy ideal for frequent travellers who take two or more trips a year.

Research from Which? found that Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance often offers better value than buying separate Single Trip Travel Insurance policies, especially if you’re planning two or more trips annually. 

With this type of insurance, you’re continuously protected against unforeseen events such as medical emergencies, trip cancellations, lost luggage, and more, providing peace of mind throughout a twelve-month period.

  • Hassle free: Cover for all your getaways with one annual policy instead of arranging new insurance each time you travel
  • You could save time and money: If you’re taking multiple trips, you may find Annual Travel Insurance cheaper than buying a new policy every time. Opting for annual cover could save you money and time by protecting multiple trips under one policy
  • Easy to renew cover: You can renew your Annual Multi-trip Insurance each year, making sure you have the same continuous cover for all your trips. You only need to complete the medical screening process once, and you can easily renew for the following year. You’ll then have another 12 months of hassle-free travel.

“Annual Travel Insurance could be just what you need if you go abroad regularly. If you travel more than once a year, an annual policy can save you time and money compared to buying separate cover for each trip. As well as offering unlimited trips to your chosen region for a whole year, policies include all the benefits of Single Trip Travel Insurance, such as cancellation cover, protection for your personal possessions, and cover for travel delays or personal liability.”

Frequently Asked Questions on Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance

How does Annual Travel Insurance work?

Annual Travel Insurance covers you for multiple trips within 12 months, offering convenience and peace of mind throughout your travels.

Once you buy an annual policy, you’re covered for an unlimited number of trips during the policy period (be sure to check your policy). This type of insurance includes benefits such as emergency medical expenses, trip cancellation, travel delays and unforeseen circumstances.

However, Annual Travel Insurance does not cover travel outside your chosen region, although you can upgrade your policy at any time.

Is it better to get Yearly Travel Insurance?

This depends on how many trips you take each year.

If you’re taking multiple trips within a year, an annual policy can work out cheaper and will save you the hassle of arranging Single Trip Insurance each time you travel.

When should you buy your Annual Multi-trip Insurance policy?

We would recommend buying Annual Multi-trip Insurance as soon as you book your holiday,

Money saving expert Martin Lewis also recommends this. He urges people to buy travel cover as soon as possible as “so many of the things you can claim for can happen before you go on holiday”.

The start date of your Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance policy will be the date your cover begins. This offers you protection leading up to any trip you take and between each trip you take.

Why can Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance be better value than a single trip?

Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance can offer better value than a single-trip policy because it covers multiple trips over a year, rather than just one.

So, if you’re going on several holidays within a year, an Annual Travel Insurance policy could be of better value.

Can you get Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance for a group trip?

Yes, our annual cover is available for groups of up to 10 people. 

Any adult named on the policy can travel independently as many times as they like throughout the year, without the need for the entire group to go on holiday together.

When does an Annual Multi-trip policy start?

You can choose the start date of your Annual Travel Insurance, up to 60 days from the date of buy. 

However, you should be aware that there will be no cancellation cover for your trip until the policy begins, so if you want to be fully covered it’s best to start the policy as soon as you’ve booked your holiday.

Do you need extra cover for sports and activities?

AllClear policies provide cover for most holiday sports and activities as standard. From hiking and cycling to scuba diving and camel riding. 

Please check the policy documents for the full list. If your chosen sport or activity is not featured, please contact us for more information.

Is a GHIC card enough to cover Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance?

A GHIC (Global Health Insurance Card) only provides access to state-provided healthcare within the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland. 

While it offers valuable medical cover during temporary stays abroad, it is not a substitute for comprehensive Travel Insurance. 

Annual Multi-trip Travel Insurance provides a wide range of benefits beyond healthcare, including cover for trip cancellations, lost baggage, travel delays, and more, making it essential for complete protection during your travels.
