WHY ORGANISATIONS AROUND THE WORLD CHOOSE INTERNATIONAL SOS | YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER IN TRAVEL RISK MANAGEMENT



When every second counts, you need more than just data - you need expertise, reach and reliability. With International SOS, your people are supported everywhere, every time - backed by the world's leading team in security, health and risk management.

See how international SOS compares to other providers - the difference is clear.


Assistance is best rendered locally. your operations and travel footprint should align neatly with the operations of your assistance provider. As a general rule, reliable intelligence is gathered and verified in-country, therefore is impossible to claim premier intelligence while simultaneously demonstrating a limited global footprint.

We have operations in 1,200+ locations across 90+ countries and a network of 86,000+ accredited providers around the world. Our reliable medical and security intelligence is gathered and verified in-country offering our clients a global presence with local expertise.


When you are injured, ill or need security assistance, you want 24/7 access to experienced professionals from your provider. Providers that rely on external or outsourced expertise aren't credible and may not be helpful in a time of need.

24/7 access to 5,200+ in-house medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and paramedics, 1,000+ Security Assistance Professionals and 400+ security partners for immediate consultation and evacuation for your entire workforce domestically and internationally.


International SOS has been the market leader in creating and providing digital travel risk management tools for decades. In 2025, International SOS introduces Quantum, the next generation of travel risk and critical event management technology - never seen before, and all within a simple pane of glass. Too many providers offer incomplete or cobbled-together technology solutions - and that makes the work harder for you. Most of the other providers have a lack of geofencing events to your environment to determine those affected, causing additional work for your managers.

Globally available, multi-lingual Digital Travel Risk Management tools and our 4.5 stars-rated Assistance App, for real-time risk monitoring and crisis management.


Providers with a single call center may become overwhelmed during a crisis. When you need help, an unanswered phone call or a busy signal is not acceptable. And if you do get through, call transfers between loosely integrated and dislocated medical and security experts leads to service delays and failures.

90% of calls answered in less than 5 seconds; Immediate access to a team of doctors, nurses, psychologists, immunologists, occupational health experts, industrial hygienists, rescue services experts, operational intelligence and corporate security experts across our 27 Assistance Centers.

International SOS has performed tens of thousands of evacuations over the past four decades, all over the world. Experienced professionals will be preferred in your time of crisis.
