Service and Delivery Specifications
Travel Coverage
Travel coverage is available in most regions worldwide, with a list of countries and geographic locations that is extensive and expanding. A detailed and updated list can be found in the reference guide. This list provides information on the geographic availability of travel support. This list of countries and geographic locations is subject to change without notice. HP recommends that you validate travel coverage through this website before any departure.
If you travel to any of these destinations outside the country where the product was purchased, HP will:
- Provide the phone number of the HP Global Solutions Center for the corresponding country or geographic location, which can be found on the HP website.
- Accept calls in the country or geographic location you are traveling to from your company's internal support service.
- Diagnose the hardware failure level.
- Arrange for next-business-day response service at your location in the participating country or geographic location, or deliver a replacement part, as needed.
- Provide the necessary parts for repair according to the hardware specification, provided that the parts located are available at the travel location.
Response Time
Response time specifies the period between the submission of the service request and HP's acknowledgment of the service request. It begins when the initial service request is received and registered by HP and ends when the authorized HP representative is scheduled to perform the repair, with diagnostics and repairs performed remotely or on-site. Response times are measured only during the coverage period and may be extended to the next business day on which a coverage period applies.
Local restrictions may apply, such as service travel areas with adjusted response times, depending on the geographic location where hardware support is requested. All response times are subject to local availability. Contact a local sales office for detailed information on service availability.
Remote Problem Diagnosis and Support
Once you have initiated a service request through a designated HP support phone number, HP will work with you during the coverage period to identify, troubleshoot, correct, or resolve the hardware problem remotely. Before any on-site support, HP may initiate and perform remote diagnostics using electronic remote support tools (when available) to access covered products. Alternatively, HP may use other available means to facilitate remote problem resolution.
If you experience a hardware problem outside your country of purchase, you must first call HP for support during local business hours at the local phone numbers, which can be found on the HP website.
On-Site Hardware Support
In cases where hardware technical problems occur that cannot be resolved remotely, at HP's discretion, an authorized HP representative will provide on-site technical support for covered hardware products to restore them to operational status. HP may, at its sole discretion, opt to replace products instead of repairing them.
Additionally, HP may install available engineering enhancements to enable the proper functioning of hardware products and maintain compatibility with HP-supplied replacement hardware parts. HP may, at its discretion, install firmware updates it deems necessary to restore the product to operation or to maintain HP's support capability.
Spare Parts and Materials
HP will provide the necessary spare parts and materials to maintain the product under coverage in good working condition, including parts and materials to implement available and recommended engineering enhancements. Spare parts will be new or functionally new in terms of performance. Replaced parts will become the property of HP. If you wish to retain, degauss, or physically destroy spare parts, you will be invoiced and required to pay the list price of the spare part.
Consumables and supplies are not supported and will not be provided as part of this service; standard warranty terms and conditions apply to consumables and supplies. Parts and components that have reached their maximum supported useful life or the maximum limit established in the manufacturer's operating manual, product quick specifications, or product technical data sheet will not be supplied, repaired, or replaced as part of this service.
Consult the “Coverage” section of this data sheet for more information.
It may be necessary to know the upgrade path for spare parts or components that are no longer manufactured. In some cases, these component part upgrades for discontinued components may incur additional costs. HP will work with you to recommend spare parts. Some components may not have spare parts available in all countries due to local support capabilities.
Coverage
This service provides coverage for eligible HP equipment, including internal components supplied and compatible with HP, such as memory and optical drives. This includes HP brand accessories purchased together and included in the original packaging of the desktop, workstation, thin client, laptop, or primary tablet, such as a mouse, keyboard, docking station, power adapter, port replicator, or AC power adapter.
For HP point-of-sale (POS) systems and bundled product solutions, such as retail or mobile POS solutions, this service covers only the base unit.
HP mobile commercial equipment batteries have coverage for up to three years. Search “How to understand warranties for professional laptops batteries” on HP.com for more information.
Coverage Period
The coverage period specifies the time during which the described services are provided on-site or remotely. Service requests received outside this coverage period will be registered on the next business day for which you have a service coverage period.
The coverage period for this service is during regular business hours, on regular business days: Service is available between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. local time, Monday through Friday, excluding HP holidays (which may vary by country and geographic location), or the applicable regular business hours and regular business days of the participating country or geographic location where service is requested.

Service Limitations
At HP's discretion, service will be provided through a combination of remote diagnostics and support, third-party services, and other service delivery methods. These may include delivery, via courier, of customer self-repair (CSR) parts or a complete replacement product. HP will determine the appropriate delivery method required to provide effective and timely support.
HP reserves the right to remove the covered product from your location for repair.
HP requires you to return the defective unit to the original country of purchase if any repair event requires the replacement of the device. Complete device replacement is not available for this service outside the original country of purchase. Travel coverage is limited to on-site and off-site repair of the original unit.

- You must postpone the service request until you return to the country where the product was originally purchased.
- You must accept the replacement of a defective foreign part with a local part (e.g., English/American keyboard).
Parts specific to a language or country, such as non-international English keyboards, non-local language keyboards, or specific country or regional power adapters, are generally not available when traveling to another country and are not included in the terms of this contract, except when service is requested within the borders of the country of origin.
Services requested outside the country of origin where the product was purchased are limited to the base unit only. Services for external monitors are only available in the original country where the product was purchased, if this additional coverage has been contracted. All-in-one devices include the display, which is not considered a separate external monitor. However, a second monitor connected to an all-in-one device would not be covered, for example.
Docking stations or port replicators are covered in the country where the Care Pack was purchased, but do not have coverage outside the country of purchase.
Other non-HP brand options are excluded from this service.
