Turn two households into one shared plan

Review finances and insurance when moving in together

A shared household changes spending, possessions and mutual responsibilities. A contract overview may reveal duplicates before anything is changed or cancelled.

Separate shared and personal spending

Rent, energy, food and shared goals are examples of joint items. Also agree which expenses and reserves should remain personal.

Review policies before combining them

Liability, contents and legal expenses policies may apply different rules to couples or households. Do not cancel a policy based only on its name; check insured persons, start date, scope and terms.

Review beneficiaries and authorisations

Marriage or moving in can be a reason to review named persons, contact details and authorisations. Whether a change is possible or needed depends on the contract and personal situation.

Make mutual dependencies visible

Shared loans, children or very different incomes may change the financial consequences of illness, reduced working capacity or death. These are examples, not a general recommendation for a particular policy.

This content provides general orientation. Situations and benefits mentioned are examples; the specific need, policy terms and individual advice are decisive. It does not state a price, acceptance or cover decision.

Frequently asked questions

Can we simply cancel two policies and keep one?

Not without reviewing them. Insured persons, benefits, previous claims, terms and conditions may differ.

Does marriage automatically change every contract?

No. Depending on the contract, notification or adjustment may be required, possible or unnecessary. Check the specific documents.
