The exact documents depend on the insurer, vehicle and transaction. Shikhar Insurance’s official FAQ identifies a photocopy of the vehicle registration book and a renewal notice from the previous insurer for a no-claim discount as motor-insurance examples.
A practical preparation list
- Vehicle registration or Blue Book details
- Owner identification requested by the insurer
- Valid driving licence details where relevant
- Previous policy or renewal notice
- Claims history needed for a no-claim discount
- Vehicle make, model, year and permitted use
- Photographs or inspection material requested by the insurer
Share documents safely
Use only the insurer’s official website, branch or confirmed secure channel. Do not send identification, payment details or full policy documents through social-media messages or an unverified agent link.
Verify before paying
Confirm the insurer is listed by the Nepal Insurance Authority, check the recipient account or payment page, and retain the proposal, receipt and final policy schedule. A comparison estimate is not proof of cover.
