Apply to surrender or withdraw a policy in full or partially.
A policy with an accumulated cash value can be surrendered for cash. However, by withdrawing or surrendering your policy, you are losing the valuable benefits and cover of your policy, which may hinder you from meeting your long-term financial objectives. You may also not be able to obtain a similar level of protection on the same terms in future.
You can consider other alternatives to maintain your policy, such as applying for a premium holiday, making a fund switch for investment-linked policies, or making a coupon withdrawal and cash loan for a traditional policy if your policy has an accumulated cash value. We encourage you to contact your Representative to discuss your options for your policy.
However, if you would still like to proceed with the policy surrender, please follow the instructions below:
