Apply for Travel Insurance

MMU has a policy to provide worldwide travel insurance for members of staff travelling on University business, and for students travelling in connection with their course or on an approved University trip. You must complete the online travel insurance form to register for travel insurance and should do this at least two weeks before your departure date.

Once submitted, an email confirmation will be sent automatically to confirm cover. Please contact the Insurance Officer if this does not happen, or if the following applies:

• You cannot find the country you wish to travel to on the drop down list. This means there may be restrictions on travel to this country (as it is a high risk destination) and the Risk Assessment for Travel to Restricted Countries will need to be completed.
• The country/area you are travelling to has sanctions in force
• You are travelling abroad for a period longer than 365 days
• You are taking business equipment totalling over £2,000
• You will be engaging in aviation as a pilot or crew member of an aircraft or other aerial device

You are reminded that you must visit the Foreign Commonwealth Office website (www.fco.gov.uk) and check your destination prior to booking and again before travel. If travel is advised against then you must seek approval from the Insurance Officer and the trip organiser (for students) or your line manager (for staff) prior to travel.

For further travel resources and advice on the destination you are travelling to see the AIG website. You will need to register as a user, using the MMU travel insurance policy number.

If you have any queries regarding insurance cover on this policy or any other MMU insurance policy please contact Katie Miu, Insurance Officer, at insurance1@mmu.ac.uk or call 0161 247 5992.
