Information for those due to travel to Tunisia

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has now advised against all but essential travel to Tunisia.

If you are already in Tunisia

You should contact your tour operator to arrange return transport to the UK and return home at the earliest opportunity.

If you have travelled independently you should return to the UK by commercial means as soon as possible.  Commercial airlines are still operating flights. For further assistance contact the British Embassy in Tunis.

Your travel insurance policy will continue to provide cover until you return to the UK provided you do so at the earliest opportunity.  If you do not return at the first available opportunity provided to you by your travel provider, then ALL cover will cease at the time you were advised to return by the travel provider.
