Traveling with your family is a very different experience compared to those travel memories you have of backpacking around Europe or traveling with friends. While you might have pushed some boundaries when traveling when you were young, you’d never do that with your family in tow.
Our plans include cover for one to eight dependents. Under World Nomads plans a dependent is classified as:
Please also note that one of the traveling adults on the purchased policy must be the legal guardian of the accompanying dependents. If you have a big family that you need to insure (more than eight dependents) then you’ll need to buy additional policies.
The World Nomads team can help you when something goes wrong, and you prevent any major headaches for your children and loved ones.
Depending on your Country of Residence and the policy you choose, you and your family may be covered for:
Travel insurance tip: Whether you have one dependent or seven it’s important that you know who we mean by ‘dependent’ (for example, the age of your dependent(s) at the time of purchasing your policy) as it may vary depending on your Country of Residence. Definitions and cover conditions are outlined in your policy wording.
The need for emergency medical care is one of the most common reasons for purchasing family cover. World Nomads policies offer cover for medical care overseas when you or your children get sick or have an accident. Also, if you suddenly fall ill or are injured while traveling and your dependent child needs help traveling home, we may assist with the cost of another adult traveling to you to bring the child home.

Travel insurance tip: If you buy a policy while traveling overseas, you must wait 72 hours before any cover is activated (with the exception of emergency medical as a result of a sudden accident which is witnessed and verified by an independent third party).
