Travel advice for this country

General

Insurance

We strongly recommend that you obtain comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling. You should ensure that this covers medical repatriation by Air‑Ambulance as cases that cannot be dealt with in Bermuda are usually referred to either Baltimore or Boston in the USA. You should also ensure that your insurance covers any additional medical expenses incurred in the USA. You should check any exclusions, and that your policy covers you for all the activities you want to undertake. For more general information see travel insurance.

If things do go wrong when you are overseas then this is how we can help.
 

Registration

Register with our LOCATE service to tell us when and where you are travelling abroad or where you live abroad so our consular and crisis staff can provide better assistance to you in an emergency.
