An insurance policy or certificate of cover — what should you know about naati-related requirements?

The subject of this page is “An insurance policy or certificate of cover”, so it deals with the case-specific points first and the shared rules afterwards. After certification, scan the full set before it leaves your hands. The deceased's and heirs' names must be spelled identically throughout; if not, add evidence they are the same person. Assets abroad usually require a recently issued document proving heir status. With a fixed filing date, count backwards from it and book each certification step in reverse. Documents with a short validity window should be produced as close to the filing date as possible. If the receiving body confirmed its requirements by email, keep that message with the file. Keep a copy of every source document plus the receipt or docket from each step. The most frequent cause of delay in this group is missing supporting documents on the first submission. Check first whether the issuing office of the source document is one the destination recognises. Before starting, make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set, then keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures, then plan the timeline so certification finishes before the real filing deadline. The specifics here are document type: Policy, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are insurance · policy · certificate · cover. Australian bodies — courts, insurers, superannuation funds and government agencies — require non-English documents to carry a translation by a NAATI-certified translator, with the stamp, practitioner number and certification expiry legible. Where the receiving body also asks for the certified source document, keep the translation and its source attached as a single set exactly as instructed. A cross-border claim bundle typically requested by insurers and pension or superannuation funds includes the policy or certificate of cover, the claim form, the death certificate or medical certificate, an autopsy report or police daily record where an accident is involved, itemised medical invoices and discharge summaries, proof of the beneficiary's relationship and bank details for payment. Every Thai-language document must be translated and certified as the receiving side requires. ILC handles documents only — translation, certified translation, arranging notarial-attorney certification and running legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs and embassies. It is not a law firm, does not draft wills as legal counsel, does not act as estate administrator, does not pursue claims on a policyholder's behalf and guarantees no decision by any court, registrar or insurer. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how many certified sets are needed and the steps the receiving authority requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
