All bike owners in India are required to have a third-party liability two-wheeler insurance policy. Insurance documents play an essential role when it comes to renewals or claims processes, and their loss can result in claim rejection. However, with the help of the two-wheeler’s registration number, the details of the bike insurance policy can be recovered, even if the policy is lost.
The rules mandate that the insured must provide their registration number online when purchasing a two-wheeler or bike insurance policy. When an insurance policy is purchased, its details are linked to the vehicle’s registration number.
