Navigating the loss of a spouse: Essential steps to take

Report your spouse's death

If your deceased spouse was an IDA member, you need to report the death to us.

Get our help in adjusting your insurance policies

At IDA Forsikring, our advisors can help you review your insurance policies. We can work together to identify any necessary modifications to your policies that need to be made. 

Depending on your current situation, it may be necessary to cancel or adjust one or more policies to ensure you have the best coverage and protection.

Keep your insurance policies, even if your deceased spouse was a member

If your deceased spouse was an IDA Forsikring member, you can retain your insurance policies, even if you're not a member.

Continue to benefit from the insurance coverage through your spouse's membership until you find a new partner.

Transfer ownership of your vehicles

If your spouse's name is registered on your car or other vehicles, transferring ownership to your name is essential, as this doesn't happen automatically. To do this, visit skat.dk for guidance on changing the vehicle owner.

This mini-guide assists in the process of transferring the ownership of the car. Remember to apply the same process for other vehicles, such as mopeds or motorcycles.

What happens to the insurance if you sell the vehicle?

If you sell the car or your spouse's moped or motorcycle, you must not actively cancel the insurance.

Car insurance, moped insurance, and motorcycle insurance will automatically be cancelled. However, if your moped isn't registered, please contact us to cancel it, as the insurance isn't automatically cancelled in this case.
