Tips and advice that could help you

  • Ask your insurer for a translation of your auto insurance policy. It might come in handy!
  • If you receive a fine abroad, pay it in full right on the spot, without any dispute and as quickly as possible. 

Long-term travel: Properly preparing your home

Before departing, secure your home to forestall theft, damage and other unwanted events. Let your home insurer know you’ll be away. Is your contract due to expire before you return? Opt for pre-authorized payment and email renewal. 

Travelling with pet
