Why do you need Travel Insurance for Cyprus?
Each year thousands of UK citizens travel to Cyprus, and through their Travel Insurance get the help and support they need when things do not go to plan.
You’ll need comprehensive cover.
Statistics from the Association of British Insurers show that every few minutes a UK holidaymaker needs emergency medical treatment abroad. These claims can range between a few hundred pounds to tens of thousands of pounds depending on your holiday destination. No one wants their holiday ruined by any unexpected bills so make sure you have the cover you need to avoid this. Comprehensive travel insurance is vital.

Once your EHIC card has expired or is cancelled, it will be replaced with a UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC). The GHIC is still not a substitute for comprehensive medical Travel Insurance.
GHIC is free via the official website.
