Hi...I will be moving to India for a year or so to work/volunteer and am looking for insurance that will cover my MacBook Pro while I’m away. I will be travelling around so am looking for a policy that covers damage, loss and theft for that time. I’m struggling to find an insurer that covers more that 120 days, if anyone knows where I could find this, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I cannot think of a gadget provider which would offer cover abroad for more than 180 days.
Any potential claim may have to be made through your contents insurance, if applicable.
EDIT - if you do have contents insurance, ensure it has personal possessions cover for cover outside of the home. Check the limit on this, as some will have an inner limit of £500 or £1000 which may not cover the Macbook Pro. If this is the case, you may wish to specify the item at what it would cost to replace brand new on a spec-for-spec basis, which may increase your premiums.0 -
Also check that it covers such a long duration abroad.
Point to consider, could you consider yourself a UK resident for this year out; you may struggle to convince an insurer of the same which would mean you couldn't readily get contents insurance anyway.0
