Maximum Alerts / Antigua and Barbuda
Updated on 16 September 2026 · source checked daily
Antigua and Barbuda — official level as of 16 September 2026: Level 1/4 ("Exercise Normal Precautions"), from the U.S. Department of State. Maximum Insurance covers this country: hospital settled directly, unlimited repatriation, CHF 1.5M, certificate on payment.
Every country has its own scale, so we ask them all the same question: is the whole country advised against?
An advisory covering only areas of the country does not raise the answer: it stays “No”, and the area is shown in the relevant column.
The level shown on this page — and across this site — is the one published by the U.S. State Department, from 1 (normal precautions) to 4 (do not travel). France and the United Kingdom publish their own advisories, with their own rules: they add to that level, they do not replace it.
Notices vary by bank and vintage — yours prevails. On the right: the Maximum contract (public documents).
We check for you whether your current cover holds for your next stay in Antigua and Barbuda.
A Maximum expert calls you back, goes through your cover with you, and tells you what holds — and what is missing. Free, no commitment.
Noted — a Maximum expert will call you back to go through your cover.
$990 for twelve months, unlimited trips — or $99/month.
Travelling only once? Below three trips a year, this contract is probably not for you.
The level is national. Risk areas are in the state advisories below.
No major event in progress is located in this country at this morning's check.
What we do locate on the map are events in progress — earthquakes and disasters reported by USGS and GDACS (UN / European Commission), which do have real coordinates. Hover a dot for details, click to open it in this briefing.

What public sources give around Saint John's: hospitals and clinics, nearest evacuation airport. In an emergency, one reflex: +41 22 ••• •• ••.
The closest to the city centre is Aids Secretariat, 0.1 km away. A medical evacuation would depart from V. C. Bird International Airport (ANU), 5.7 km from Saint John's.
None of these facilities is a Maximum Insurance “partner”, and none is presented as waiving upfront payment: this list is a reading of public map data, nothing more. A direct payment guarantee is arranged CASE BY CASE by our assistance desk, facility by facility and when the need arises — one number, +41 22 ••• •• ••.

Level 1/4 ("Exercise Normal Precautions") according to the U.S. Department of State, retrieved on 16 September 2026. Maximum Insurance checks this official source every day.
The Pack VIP ($990 for twelve months, unlimited trips) covers CHF 1.5M emergency medical expenses, unlimited evacuation and repatriation, the direct payment guarantee in hospital, and a nominative certificate in the format visa applications require, Schengen included. The Pack VIP Extreme adds crisis management & security and Kidnap & Ransom (subject to eligibility).
Many consulates require proof of international medical cover before issuing a visa — Schengen included for non-European travellers. Maximum Insurance issues the official named certificate on payment, accepted for these procedures.
One reflex: call +41 22 ••• •• •• (24/7). Within our worldwide medical network — 45,000 medical providers — the insurer sends its direct payment guarantee: the hospital is settled directly, no deposit advanced by the traveller.
These are travel-insurance options, with a public notice. At level 4/4 (Do Not Travel), several notices rule the trip out (Amex, exclusion no. 11; Mastercard Fortuneo, art. 5.5). Below that, the area exclusion generally does not apply — 90 days max, reimbursement afterwards, no visa certificate remain. The VIP Pack runs 12 months, pays the hospital, and issues the certificate on payment.
A health plan treats you at home: the hospital here asks for a guarantee before admission. A travel policy has its own terms — often a territorial clause at level 4/4, and 90 days. Without the document (IPID number or PDF), we cannot say. Ask a Maximum Insurance expert to call you back.
