An Asian friend of ours is going to Pakistan and needs health insurance. Can anyone recommend a reputable company he can use ? We used a Turkish company some years ago which was a mistake so We can advise one company to avoid, but genuine companies people have used would behelpful.
Thank you in advance

Anthony at Azant in Alsancak supplied a Staysure Policy for a trip to India in Mach of this year.

Previous claims experience with this company was excellent.

Thank you very much. I didn't know if he could get a Staysure policy as he's obviously from Pakistan and not UK - but I'll tell him this; many many thanks

I don't know what restrictions there are on Ethnicity/Nationality, but it won't hurt to ask...

Oh yes, I remember now!

come_on_aylin mentioned that in a post a couple of months ago - something to do with Brexit!

Sorry about that.

I would still ask Azant though, because they are very helpful.

Keep your eyes open on that! If Boris (or is that Dominic) gets his way and Brexit happens at the end of October with a crash out disaster - sorry I should say a no deal - then you will probably need a visa to enter Cyprus! What will happen after you get there is anyone’s guess because as a third world citizen (assuming you hold a UK passport) they may or may not allow you to go North or enter the RoC from the North. Interesting times, nobody knows for sure so just keep reading the news and watch Cyprus Mail as well, they love to publicize things that show how law abiding they are!
