Does type 2 diabetes affect travel insurance?

Your travel insurance could be affected if you have diabetes. Make sure you declare type 2 diabetes, and any other medical conditions, when buying your policy. We’ll ask you a few questions, then tell you if we can cover you (we almost always can) and whether you’ll need to pay any extra (often you won’t need to).

Do you have to declare prediabetes on travel insurance?

It’s important to declare all medical conditions, including prediabetes, when buying travel insurance. If you don’t tell us about your conditions and something happens while you’re away, your claim might not be paid. We consider all medical conditions and can cover many of them at no extra cost.
