5 Important Things To Keep In Mind About Your Bike Insurance When Relocating

 

Relocating to a new city surely requires a lot of planning and hard work. However, amidst the number of tasks to do, there are a few small, yet important things that need to be taken care of when it comes to taking your two-wheeler along with you to the new city. Let’s take a look at 5 such things that you need to keep in mind with regards to your bike insurance.


1)      Update your existing address - The very first thing that needs to be taken care of when it comes to your two-wheeler insurance policy is the change of address in the insurance company’s records. This is an important thing to keep in mind as in a scenario where you need to make an insurance claim, having the old invalid address will disqualify you from receiving the insurance money. As a general rule of thumb, update your residential address before you begin the process of bringing the bike to the new city.

 

2)      Register your two-wheeler again - If you are permanently shifting to a new city or going there for an extended period of time, it is recommended to register your vehicle again and obtain a local registration number. Do keep in mind that you would require a NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the road transport office of the previously registered city for this process. You should also notify the insurer about this change and keep a record of it in an effort to keep the entire process of claiming the insurance swift and hassle-free.

 

3)      Get the NOC from your local police - In an effort to prove that you have no pending fines in your previously registered city, you would need to acquire a NOC from the local police of that city. Getting this certificate will prove helpful when you make an bike insurance claim in the new city of your residence

4)      Find out about the partnered garages - You do not need to memorize each and every garage in the new city but it is better if you have a rough idea about the availability of the insurance company’s partnered garages in the new city. Doing this will help you understand whether you can make a cashless claim in the city or need to pay for the repairs from your pocket and then get raise an insurance claim for the reimbursement of the paid amount.
