Who this template is for

Policy Change Request is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in insurance.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 20 questions across 2 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 9 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional validation: if “What would you like to change?” is Add or remove a named driver, “Driver name, date of birth and licence details” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “What would you like to change?” is Change of address, “New address” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “What would you like to change?” is Cancel the policy, “Why are you cancelling?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Are you the policyholder?” is No, I am acting for them, “Your name and your authority to act” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Mid-term changes are simple individually and chaotic in aggregate, because each type needs different information and most forms ask for all of it. This two-page request asks what type of change is wanted first, then only the fields that change needs. The first page identifies the policy and the person asking, confirms they are the policyholder or authorised to act, and records the change type: address, vehicle, named driver, cover level, business details, payment details, or cancellation. The second page holds the detail sections, shown according to that answer — new address and date of the move, vehicle registration and keeper, driver details and licence history, new cover level or sum insured, updated turnover or staff numbers. Every change asks for an effective date, because a change backdated by guesswork is where disputes start. The last section covers how any additional premium or refund is handled. Whether a change can be made, and what it costs, is decided by the insurer against the policy terms rather than confirmed here.

What this form asks

Every question is editable — rename it, make it optional, or delete it entirely.

How the form changes as it's filled in

Set it up step by step

  1. 1

    Ask for the change type first

    One question at the top lets the second page show four fields instead of thirty, which is the difference between a two-minute form and an abandoned one.

  2. 2

    Always require an effective date

    Backdating by assumption is where most mid-term disputes begin, so make the date explicit and confirm it in writing.

  3. 3

    Route cancellations to a person

    A cancellation request is a retention conversation as much as an administrative one, so it should not be processed silently.

  4. 4

    Confirm the premium effect separately

    The settlement question captures a preference; the actual figure comes from the insurer and belongs in your confirmation.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Showing every change section to everyone, so the form looks like an application.
  • Quoting the cost of a change in the form, before the insurer has rated it.
  • Letting a customer assume a change is live on submission, which the confirmation checkbox is there to prevent.

What it pairs with

Most teams don't run this form on its own. These are the forms and systems it sits next to.

What to do with the responses

Confirm the change and any premium adjustment in writing, update the policy record from the effective date, and route cancellations to a named handler.

Works in both layouts

These pages cover the same subject ground as the policy change request, matched on the words people actually search for.

Frequently asked questions

Is the change effective when the form is submitted?

No. The confirmation makes that explicit: a change applies once the insurer confirms it, and your written confirmation is what the customer should rely on.

How does it relate to the quote request?

The Insurance Quote Request Form is for new cover. This form adjusts a policy that already exists, which needs the policy number and an effective date.

Can a broker complete it for a client?

Yes. The authority question captures who is asking and on what basis, which is worth recording even when the relationship is obvious.

Should the form show the cost of the change?

No. Pricing a mid-term adjustment is the insurer's, so capture the preference for settling any difference and confirm the figure afterwards.

Is the Policy Change Request template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Policy Change Request on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

Can I edit the Policy Change Request form after copying it?
