It's important that you know what An Post Insurance Travel Insurance will and won't cover for Coronavirus (Covid-19) so that you can decide whether this policy meets your needs.

We'll cover cancellation costs if you or someone you're travelling with:

• Contracts Coronavirus before your trip.
• Is required to quarantine on orders of a treating doctor/HSE, and the period of quarantine goes past your original departure date.

Important Note: Covid-19 "positive" test must be certified in writing as specifically relating to You or Your Travelling Companion(s) by a test that is recognised by the Republic of Ireland Government, including such a test that is carried out by a licensed pharmacy, a licensed laboratory or the treating Doctor.

What Coronavirus cover do you have when you’re on holiday:

• We will cover overseas medical and repatriation (the cost to get you home) expenses provided you are not travelling to areas where the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) allocates a security status of "Avoid non-essential travel" or "Do not travel".
• We'll also cover any additional accommodation (room only) and travelling home costs you may have if you are required, on the orders of a Doctor, to quarantine on holiday, if the period of quarantine goes past your original return date.
