These terms are used in the following pages and are defined below.

Minimum proof of ownership and value
We require proof when items are lost, stolen or badly damaged. While we understand it is not practical to keep proof for every household item you own, there are items we do expect minimum proof of ownership for and these are described on the following pages. If you do not provide the required minimum proof of ownership set out in the tables for these items, we may reject your claim. We have the right to ask you for more proof and will do so in writing.
