The chief executive of Ireland’s representative body for the insurance industry has advised confused consumers to check with their insurer before travelling abroad to be sure their cover remains intact.

Moyagh Murdock said Ireland’s main insurers will be providing travel insurance to countries on the Government’s travel green list; the 15 countries to which travel to and from does not require a mandatory two-week period of self-isolation due to Covid-19.
