The best protection for you as a diver, dive instructor, divemaster or dive guide.
In addition to a good insurance covering personal accidents and travel, as a dive pro you want to protect your professional activity with liability insurance. Even minor mishaps can result in large financial burdens. Whether facing a legitimate claim or dealing with a lawsuit that ultimately finds you not liable, this coverage can offer benefits to everyone involved.
All Pro Plans are designed to cover you should the unforeseen happen, during recreational or professional diving - be it SCUBA, freediving, technical or rebreather diving - everywhere in the world.
There are three different Pro Plans on offer (Bronze, Silver, Gold). All of them include €4,000,000 professional liability cover and legal defense. Extent of other benefits depends on the plan you choose.
In some countries outside the European Union, the only option available is the Pro Member plan, which is equivalent to the Pro Silver.

No, your students are not automatically covered. However, you can cover for free a number of your entry-level students by registering them on your MyDAN. Furthermore, you can purchase specific insurance plans for your scuba and freediving students attending entry level, advanced and specialty courses as well as freediving workshops.
Yes, it does. In fact, the student plans have nothing to do with the professional liability insurance of your Pro Member plan. Whether you decide or not to provide your students with an insurance coverage, this does not affect your liability cover (as long as there is one).
DAN Europe insurance plans feature a coverage for medical emergencies abroad, however it is not a full travel or health insurance. The cover for NON-diving related medical emergencies is only valid when you are travelling abroad, for a number of days, which varies according to the plan you have chosen.
Diving is a safe sport at any age, however risks can increase for older enthusiasts. If you are 75 or older, to complete your application, you have to submit a medical certificate stating:
- your fitness to dive
- your current health conditions
- any medication you take and its dosage
Send your certificate to medicalreferrals@daneurope.org so that the DAN Europe specialists can get back to you within a few days.
DAN Europe recommends gas partial pressures up to a maximum of 1,6ATA Oxygen and 5,6ATA Nitrogen in the breathing mixture.
DAN Europe recommends gas partial pressures of 1,4 ATA Oxygen or up to a maximum of 1,6ATA Oxygen and 3,95ATA Nitrogen in the breathing mixture and not to exceed 130 metres of depht.
On written submission of a full dive profile and proposed safety and support measures insurers may consider providing specific per dive insurance for any dive exceeding 130 metres.
