Uzbekistan & Life Insurance
When applying for life insurance, travel to Uzbekistan is something that most insurers will want to assess carefully.
Since Uzbekistan isn’t considered a typical holiday destination, insurers will likely ask for more details about your trip.
Our advisers will ask you questions such as:
- Why are you travelling to Uzbekistan?
- How long will you be staying?
- When does your trip begin?
Insurers will also want to know whether your trip is a one-off event or if you’re planning to visit Uzbekistan multiple times in the next few years.
Some insurers may not offer life insurance if you plan to travel to Uzbekistan — but not all. That’s where our expertise can help you find the best options.
Whether you are a civilian or military personnel can also affect your life insurance terms. The reason for your travel and how long you stay there for are key factors in understanding whether you’ll be offered standard life insurance terms or face higher premiums.
Our multi award winning advisers will find the right life insurance company for you, so that you can put your mind at ease that your loved ones are protected if the worst happens.
British citizens who have moved abroad can often still access life insurance and critical illness cover in the UK. There are specific rules that you must follow to be eligible for new life insurance and critical illness policies, and we are here to strip out the jargon and get you the cover that you need.
Critical illness cover pays out a cash lump sum of money, if you are diagnosed with a medical condition that is listed in the insurer’s claims set e.g. cancer, heart attack, stroke.
Critical illness cover for people travelling to Uzbekistan will be evaluated based on the duration and frequency of your visits. Similar to life insurance, if your travel is related to a high-risk occupation, such as military or security work, your application will be assessed with a focus on your job.
Military personnel may encounter exclusions in their critical illness cover, meaning certain conditions like loss of limbs, coma, or traumatic head injury may be removed from the policy. This can be worded as an ‘occupational exclusion’ and our advisers will help you to understand how things like this can change a policy.
While civilians have historically been able to get critical illness cover when travelling to Uzbekistan, it is now often limited to specialist policies.
Our advisers will search the insurance market to find the best critical illness cover options tailored to your needs, offering you clear guidance throughout the process.
Income protection pays you a replacement of your monthly income, if you are unable to work due to ill health.
Income protection for military personnel or civilians travelling to Uzbekistan will need to be arranged through specialist insurance providers, who may or may not accept the application.
For military personnel, securing income protection in the UK can be particularly challenging, often only available during a sabbatical.
If you’re planning to travel to Uzbekistan, you’ll need to inform the insurer about the duration of your stay, specific locations you’ll be visiting or working in, and the methods of transport you’ll use. If your job requires travel to Uzbekistan, the industry you work in (e.g., energy) and your role (e.g., security personnel) will be key factors.
Premiums for income protection are likely to be higher if you are travelling to Uzbekistan as part of your work duties.
Our advisers are here to help you find the right income protection solution that fits your needs.
