Snake Insurance

How much does snake insurance cost?

The cost of your policy depends on a few things, like your pet snake’s species, age, and other factors. For example, an ExoticDirect Essentials policy with £1,000 of vet fee cover could cost as little as £14.07 a month, spread over 10 months.¹

Can you insure snakes who have recently been unwell?

We can’t cover your snake if they’ve been to the vet for an accident or illness in the last 3 months. But don’t worry – once they’ve been treatment-free for 3 months and are fit and healthy, we can insure them. Pre-existing conditions won’t be covered in the first year, but after that, we’ll review them based on the policy terms, with no exclusions applied.

As always, cover is subject to our Policy Terms and Conditions.
