What to Do If the Insurance Documents Are Lost or Stolen?

In case you lose your insurance policy documents, follow the steps given below:

Go to the nearest police station and file an FIR. Get a copy of the FIR.
Write an application to the Insurance Company informing them about the loss or theft and ask for a copy of the policy.
Keep the newly issued duplicate docs safe and secure.

Here are some key takeaways from this section that you should remember.

Insurance documents have important information about your insurance policy like policy number, terms, sum assured, name of nominee and beneficiary, and policy benefits.
Keep two sets of your insurance documents – one set in a file in your house and another set in a different safe place.
In case of theft or loss of insurance documents, file an FIR and then write to the insurance company for a copy of the policy.
