Freedom of Services

« Back to Glossary Index

Glossary Definition: The freedom of services passporting right allows an insurance carrier licensed in one European Economic Area (EEA) member state to provide coverage for risks located in another EEA state without establishing a local branch. Leveraging freedom of services (FoS) principles significantly streamlines the placement of cross-border insurance
portfolios, eliminating the administrative need to purchase separate, fragmented admitted insurance policies across Europe.
