Travel insurance for Bermuda
Short-trip cover for visits to Bermuda: emergency medical, trip-cancellation, luggage, the usual travel-insurance stack. Designed for weeks-not-years stays.
Bermuda ran a popular one-year remote-work certificate, but it closed to new applicants on 28 February 2025, so the real route now is short visa-free stays or Permission to Reside on an Annual Basis. It is English-speaking and tax-free on personal income, with one modern hospital, yet it is a small mid-Atlantic island where serious cases are flown to the US east coast by air ambulance. That evacuation flight, and Bermuda's famously high prices, make medical and repatriation cover the single most important thing to get right.
