Most insurers do not offer such cover under traditional travel insurance policies or exclude it. Terrorism has risen sharply in recent decades across both hazardous countries (such as Iraq, Syria, Somalia and Afghanistan) as well as across mainland Europe. Hotpsot Cover policies do not exclude war and terrorism in any part of the world or country (except for North Korea and Iran).
Hotspot Cover can provide travel cover for 1 to 365 days thereby covering short and annual length trips.
