Thailand Coup

At Mike Henry Travel Insurance we always follow advice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) in situations that involve travel to a foreign country. Below are a few points regarding our position on travel for Thailand.

• At this stage MFAT has listed the situation in Thailand as ‘some risk’ to personal security.
• If an insured customer is in Thailand and incurs additional expenses as a result of the coup we will cover these costs, provided they are reasonable.
• At this stage we do not foresee that any additional costs will be incurred.
• If someone departs for Thailand from today onwards and their policy was purchased before 19 September, they will be covered for reasonable unforeseen expenses incurred as a result of the coup.
• If a policy is purchased today when the MFAT advisory for Thailand is ‘some risk’, the traveller will be covered for reasonable unforeseen expenses incurred as a result of the coup.
• At this stage there is no cover for cancellation of travel to Thailand as a result of the coup.
