Travelling abroad? What a travel loan can cover

Tickets, visa fees, insurance and proof of funds rarely arrive one at a time. A travel loan is sized against the whole trip.

Whether it is study abroad, a business trip, visiting family or medical travel, the cost of a journey rarely arrives as a single bill. Tickets, visa fees, insurance and proof of funds tend to land at the same time.

One facility for the whole trip

A Gap Castle travel loan is sized against the full cost of getting there — not just the flight. That can include:

  • Flight tickets

  • Visa application fees

  • Travel insurance

  • Proof of funds (POF) support for student and visitor visa applications

Before you apply

Have these details to hand to make the application quicker:

  • Your destination and the purpose of the trip

  • Your planned travel date, even if it is an estimate

  • The amount you need and what it will cover

Your loan officer may also ask for your international passport, admission or invitation documents, and a recent bank statement.

Next steps

Apply for a travel loan online in about five minutes. A loan officer will contact you within one working day.
