Professional Indemnity Insurance

I’m looking for advice on companies who offer international professional indemnity insurance. I’m a British citizen, living in Bahrain and newly self employed. My business is marketing research freelance / consulting and big UK companies like Hiscox won’t insure me because I am no longer paying UK income tax and NI contributions. Any recommendations of brokers to try would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lara

Hello

Did you have any luck with international professional indemnity insurance?

I am also a UK citizen who has expatriated and looking for insurance as a self employed counsellor/psychotherapist.

Any advice you have is greatly appreciated

I’m a dual US/UK citizen based in Iceland with a Dutch company (having moved from Holland to Iceland).

I’m in need of both professional liability insurance broadly and of Commercial General Liability insurance with specific requirements for a US client.

Any ideas appreciated.

Hey everyone,

Hoping someone here has solved a version of this before.

I’m a freelance data research consultant based in North Macedonia (Western Balkans, non-EU). I work as an individual — no registered company. My work is collecting, structuring and validating business data from publicly available sources for a UK-based client, delivered entirely remotely.

I need Professional Indemnity insurance, £1 million cover Simple enough requirement on paper — except I’ve spent weeks hitting walls.

I’ve contacted dozen of insurance comapanies:

  • exali — perfect product, wrong country. North Macedonia isn’t in their 28-country list
  • Hiscox — HQ residents and companies only

I’m currently waiting on a response from Sovereign Insurance Services (Gibraltar-based international broker), but casting the net wider while I wait.

My situation in a nutshell:

  • Individual, no company registration
  • Based in North Macedonia
  • UK client, UK jurisdiction
  • Low-risk work (no financial/legal advice, no decision-making — just data collection from public sources)

Has anyone here managed to get PI insurance from a non-EU/non-UK country as an individual? Particularly curious whether anyone has used a Lloyd’s market broker or found an online platform that actually covers the Western Balkans.

Any leads, names, would be genuinely appreciated.

Thanks
