Australians Overseas
Forgot to take travel insurance before you left home, your travel insurance policy has expired or you need cover for your journey home? If you’ve been in this situation before and tried to purchase a policy from overseas you will know it’s not that easy! Most travel insurers will not cover you unless you have taken cover before leaving home. That’s where we are different.
