# What Insurance Covers Kidnapping?

K&R may cover a defined kidnapping of an insured person and specified response expenses under the policy.

K&R forms define which events count as kidnapping and which employees, executives, or family members are insured. A product description does not establish the policy’s exact trigger or covered expenses.

Check insured-person definitions, territory, ransom and consultant costs, limits, approval rules, and sanctions terms. Confirm emergency contacts and reporting instructions before travel.
