Dive insurance

[Gulnara]

Hello! Please, advise! I live in Thailand, my country of residence is Russia and currently I work in Egypt. I need a dive insurance, so which one I need to enroll? Europe, South-East Asia or Africa? PADI or PAN?

Try contacting DAN Europe

DAN is the only way to go. 1st class insurance. You need the professional level.

DAN is quite good but is NOT the only way to go. One of the alternatives is Gerling.

If I were in your shoes, I would have tried contacting my local federation in Russia and ask if they have any special deals with insurance companies.

Sorry but I think DAN is the best way to go - world wide and never any problems.

Best way is different than only way!
