Allianz Travel’s utmost priority is protecting you and also keeping you well informed about latest developments during this uncertain situation with COVID-19 pandemic. As the outbreak continues, Allianz Travel teams around the globe are continuously monitoring and responding to the rapidly evolving situation.

We want you to know that we are doing all we can to protect you. We would like to update you on how we are approaching the situation, as well as general tips for our customers.

Given the rapid rise in travel bans, please first ensure that no travel ban is in place during your dates of travel PRIOR TO purchasing a travel insurance policy.  Policies purchased while a known travel ban is in place will have extremely limited insurance coverage, and we highly recommend NOT to purchase travel insurance policies when such conditions exist. You can visit, International Air Transport Association (IATA) here^, for more information on travel bans happening around the world. 

Single Trip Policies: We will provide the cancellation for your policy at any time before the departure date shown on your certificate of insurance. Also, we will provide full refund for your policy cancellation on a Goodwill basis, if your departure date shown on your certificate of insurance is on or before 30 April 2020. We will continue to monitor the situation and revise of this goodwill refund if it needs to be extended. Please check back on our website to get the latest information about this.

Annual Multi-trip Policies: We will provide the cancellation for your policy at any time, provided no claims have been made during the period of insurance coverage specified on your certificate of insurance.
