How to Check Your Parents’ Insurance Policies Through OIC Connect

💡 Key takeaways

Use My Policy when the policyholder is living and My Legacy for a qualifying heir’s search after death. The account holder should control access and consent.

If you want to help your parents find their insurance policies, first distinguish between a living policyholder checking their own records and an heir making an inquiry after the insured person has died. OIC Connect lists different services for these situations. Being someone’s child does not by itself justify accessing that person’s account or private information.

If your parent is living: let the policyholder check

The Office of Insurance Commission’s Center of InsurTech (CIT) lists My Policy as a service for users. It is grouped with services that use ThaiD identity verification. The safer approach is for your parent to sign in and review the results. If they want help, they should give consent and remain in control of the login. Do not ask them to share a password or one-time passcode.

  1. Help your parent gather existing policy documents, emails, or messages from insurers for comparison.
  2. Have the policyholder open OIC Connect through an official channel and follow the identity-check steps shown at the time.
  3. Select My Policy and compare the results with existing documents or information from the insurer.
  4. Record the insurer, policy type, coverage dates, premium, and beneficiary in a private register. Keep policy numbers and personal identifiers secure.

If the insured person has died: check My Legacy

CIT lists My Legacy as a separate service for an heir to search for policies, with ThaiD identity verification. If you are making an inquiry as an heir, read the current instructions on the CIT OIC Connect page and follow the conditions displayed by the service. Do not use the deceased person’s account or send sensitive documents to someone whose identity you have not verified.

The service page identifies the service and verification method, but does not set out every document or eligibility condition for every case. Do not assume who qualifies or which documents are required. If the service does not show an option that fits your family’s situation, contact the OIC or insurer before sharing personal information.

If no policy appears

The OIC’s search for life insurance products currently offered by insurers is a product directory, not a personal policy record. It does not replace My Policy or My Legacy.

Keep personal information secure

When you find a policy, store a copy, the insurer’s name, payment due dates, and official contact details where the policyholder or an authorized person can access them. Avoid sending ID-card images, policy numbers, or one-time passcodes in group chats, and do not publish beneficiary details.
