Syria Insurance
Robust cover is vital
After many years of civil unrest, Syria is entering a new period of governance. Whilst the UK FCDO advises against all travel to Syria due to unpredictable security conditions and the threat of terrorist attacks, it is possible to organise specialist high-risk Syria insurance directly through Lloyd’s of London.

Potential dangers in Syria
Following the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024, Syria has begun to return a more stable civil society, with a focus on repairing vital infrastructure and new economic projects alongside humanitarian aid.
For foreign nationals, the unpredicatable security situation on a regional/local level makes Syria a potentially dangerous place to work. As an NGO worker, journalist, engineer or consultant considering working in Syria, high-risk Personal Accident insurance, Medical protection with Emergency Evacuation and Kidnap and Ransom insurance are highly recommended.
If you are sending people into Syria, we may be able to help with risk assessments, duty of care and security briefings, as well as cover for your Employee, Public and Business Liabilities.
Every case needs to be individually assessed – please talk to our experts to explore cover options for your people.
