Before you buy travel insurance for your holiday to Italy, there are a few things to think about:
- The activities you’re likely to be doing – whether you’ll need additional cover with our adventure and extreme sports policy? You may even need additional ski insurance or snowboarding cover
- How much medical coverage you’ll need and whether you’ll need repatriation
- The total cost of your trip – If you have to cancel, it’s important to know that you can get your money back
- Always check the latest travel advice from the FCDO for any issues that may have occurred that might prevent you travelling or any vaccinations you might need

Healthcare in Italy
British citizens should have their free European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), which can be used in Italy. This will cover any necessary treatments you may receive at public healthcare centres or hospitals on your trip. However, it’s important to remember to still have European travel insurance in place to be able to cover the costs of any unexpected medical treatment the EHIC/GHIC might not cover, or repatriation costs.
