Change Address in LIC Policy: Online and Offline Procedures
Procedure for Changing the Address in LIC Policy (Online):
To change your address online, the policyholder must first create an account on the LIC of India portal and enroll their policy. After enrolling the policy, the policyholder needs to get the enrollment form verified by signing it and upload it back to the portal. Once the verification is complete, the LIC policyholder can update the address on their own without visiting the LIC branch office.
Procedure for Changing the LIC Policy Address (Offline):
To change the address offline, the policyholder must write a letter to LIC of India, mentioning their policy number and providing a valid proof of address. This process can only be done at the home branch, i.e., the branch that issued the policy. Once the EDMS and E-FEAP projects are fully operational, address changes can be made at any LIC branch without needing to visit the home branch.
