Am I automatically insured all over the world when I take out an insurance policy?

This depends on the type of contract you have subscribed :


- For temporary contracts, you have chosen the country you wish to cover. You are also covered in the countries in the same zone that you cross to reach your destination. 

- For Light, Smart, VIP and Sport contracts, you are automatically covered in Europe, but you can extend your cover to the whole world by taking out the "World" option. 

- In our previous range of insurance contracts (Annual, Annual Plus, Annual Comfort, Prestige), you are automatically covered worldwide.
