What happens if I have an accident abroad?

If you have an accident abroad, it will depend on the severity of the accident and the country you are in as to what happens next.

It is important to have appropriate travel insurance coverage and emergency contact information in case of such situations.

What to do if you have an accident on holiday?

If you have an accident on holiday that wasn't your fault, the first step is to ensure your safety and that of those around you. Seek medical attention immediately if necessary. Report the incident to the local authorities, your package holiday provider and your travel insurance company. Document any injuries, damages, or relevant details. Follow the instructions and guidance provided by medical professionals and insurance agents. If you want to make a legal claim for compensation, speak to a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible.
