# What Are Examples of Kidnap and Ransom Claims?

These examples illustrate possible K&R claims; a real claim must meet the policy’s event definition and response conditions.

These examples illustrate possible K&R claims; a real claim must meet the policy’s event definition and response conditions. A K&R claim might involve a kidnapping, a qualifying extortion threat, or wrongful detention that matches the policy terms. Chubb and Travelers list examples of those events in their product materials, but an example does not promise payment.

Check who is insured, event definitions, notice and consent requirements, applicable limits, and required records. Review the response process before a trip or incident.
