Travel Insurance query for partner on spouse visa

Post by atucker » Mon Sep 03, 2012 4:26 pm

Hi there,

My wife recently moved to the UK on a spouse visa with 27 months entry clearance.

We would like to go on a vacation to Europe but I am not sure of her residency status when applying for travel insurance.

Is she classed as a UK resident in this instance or would she need to apply for travel insurance as a non-UK resident?

Many thanks for any help or guidance anyone can offer me!

She is obviously resident in the UK therefore a UK resident.

If I remember correctly some policies I have seen require at least six months of residence.

Residency status - UK. That's where she lives.
