We know it can be easy to forget to buy travel insurance when planning a holiday. If you’ve left home without travel insurance or your policy is due to expire and you’re still on the road, you can still purchase travel insurance with World Nomads.
We’ve designed simple and flexible travel insurance so you can buy what you need, when you need it, even while travelling. If you forgot to buy a policy before you started your trip, are outside your home country without insurance, or your cover has ended but your trip hasn’t, you can buy a World Nomads policy 24/7 online.
If you buy a policy while traveling, waiting periods, conditions and restrictions on cover do apply.
What is a waiting period?
You may have to wait 72 hours (waiting period) before any cover is activated, depending on when you purchase your policy as explained in ‘When cover starts & ends’ in your Policy Wording. This means certain benefits such as Cancelling Your Trip may not apply, as you’ve already left your country of residence.
Please note that your country of residence will determine the laws, regulations and tax that apply.
Most policies can cover you straight away if you're injured in an accident after you buy a policy. Your Policy Wording will have full details to understand the cover, limits and exclusions.

It's not always fun.
Due to mishap, my frenulum on my penis got severely damaged. During intercourse with my girlfriend it nearly ripped and caused me a lot of pain and blood. I went to the doctor and he operated on it. Now everything is okay again.
