Government advice covers entry rules, safety and health. Traveling against official advice can also affect your insurance.

Before you buy a policy for this trip

  1. Confirm that Qatar and any stopovers fall within the policy's territory.
  2. Check that medical and evacuation limits suit how far you'd be from good hospitals and from home.
  3. Compare your planned activities against the exclusions, including scooters and adventure sports.
  4. Declare your health conditions accurately.
  5. Carry a certificate of insurance. See how to read one.
