Need support? You are welcome to email us to check if your documents and forms are in order. Please email customer_care.kh@fwd.com.

Original

Policy document

Certified true copy
Certified true copy means it's a signed copy of an original document. This then needs a new signature from you, the claimant (even if it's already been signed by you or somebody else).

Death certificate – this must be sign by a government officer to sign-off on your original documents.
The insured and claimant’s ID card – must be signed by the claimant to sign-off on your original documents.
Any loss of life from non-natural causes must be signed by the police or relevant government authority to sign-off on your original documents.
Non-natural causes include an accidental death, murder (homicide), suicide, a death caused by an animal, or any death with undetermined causes. For these non-natural deaths, we need:
- Police report
- Autopsy report (in case of autopsy)

Need your paperwork back?
If you can only send original copies then please let us know if you need any paperwork back and we will post it back to you.

2. Fill out a claim form

Claim form

Statement of attending physician's form

This form must be completed by the attending medical doctor.
If the loss of life was due to an accident, there's no need to fill out the statement of attending physician’s form. However we will need further details, where relevant - for example, a police report.

3. Submit the claim form and any required documents

Send to:

FWD Life Insurance (Cambodia) PLC.

Siri Building. Customer service the 1st Floor, #104, Russian Federation Blvd, TeukL’ak I, TuolKork, Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Your questions answered

We believe it's part of our job to make the claims experience as easy as possible. These are some of the questions you might have and the answers we can give you. If you’re unsure about anything, simply get in touch.

When will you make a decision on my claim?

We aim to make a claims decision within 14 working days after we’ve received all completed forms and all the documents we need. Please ensure you send us everything we need as we can’t start to process your claim until we have everything we need.

Please note that occasionally we need more time to make a decision on a claim. This could be for a number of reasons - for example the type of claim, how complex the case is, and whether we have all the information and documents we need.

How and when will you pay me?

Once your claim is approved, we'll send a cheque. For some claims you can select your preferred method to receive your claim. If this is the case, we’ll highlight this on the claims form. We aim to make all claims payments within five working days.

After I've made a claim, how long should I keep my original documents?

Please keep all original copies of any documents until we make a claim decision. This is because occasionally we need to see these to either verify a claim or as part of our own internal auditing and checks.
