Expat insurance
Expat insurance in Montserrat
Comprehensive cover for people who've actually moved to Montserrat: multi-year stability, no trip caps, and the proper inpatient/outpatient stack you want when this is home now.
Montserrat runs a one-year Remote Workers Stamp for digital nomads: English-speaking, a British territory, and one of the quietest corners of the Caribbean. Health insurance valid in Montserrat is a written condition of the stamp, but the figure that matters is medical evacuation, because the island has a single small hospital and serious cases are flown to Antigua or further. With an active volcano in the south and a hurricane belt overhead, evacuation cover is the line that earns its keep here.

Expat insurance in Montserrat: FAQ
