Why choose Staysure Expat

Living abroad? We get it.

We're specialists in travel insurance for expats, built by someone who's actually lived the expat life. 

Founded by an expat, for expats

Staysure has helped over 12 million people Dream Big since 2005. But Staysure Expat isn't just Staysure with a different label — it's built from real experience. 

 

Our founder, Ryan Howsam, has lived the expat life himself. He knows what it's like to sort out travel insurance in a country that isn't home, to navigate a currency and a postcode system that make no sense, and to worry about whether cover back home actually stretches to cover you where you live now. That's exactly why Staysure Expat travel insurance exists — cover shaped around how expats actually live, not how insurers assume you live. 

 

Cover that's tailored to your life abroad

Choosing cover for life overseas shouldn't be confusing or overwhelming. You can choose cover based on how and where you live, with flexible options to suit your travel plans — so you can get on with enjoying it. 

 

  • Cover available for most pre-existing medical conditions, subject to medical screening and acceptance. 
  • Choose the level of cover that fits your circumstances abroad 
  • Pick the limits that protect what matters most to you 
  • Add optional extras built for expat life, not just holidaymakers 

 

With the right cover in place, you can get on with your life abroad — not worry about it. 

We're people too, with honest values

We're a friendly bunch, and that doesn't change because you live somewhere else. 

 

Whether you're calling with a question about your cover, or just want to talk to someone who understands what “abroad” actually feels like day to day, you'll get to know us pretty well. 

 

We live by four values: 

  1. Dare to be different 
  2. Better together 
  3. Keep it real 
  4. Always do the right thing

Founder and CEO of Staysure

Helping you live life abroad, your way

An expat himself 

Ryan founded Staysure in 2004 with one big dream — proper cover for people other insurers overlooked. Having lived abroad himself, he saw the same gap for expats: cover designed for people who live somewhere else, not just visit. 

Today Staysure Group employs over 700 people across the UK and internationally. As a privately owned company, we make decisions based on what our customers — expats included — actually need, not what shareholders want.
