I’m moving, how do I terminate my guarantee?

  • The lessor’s guarantee certificate must be returned to us in order to release the guarantee. This will remove your obligation to pay the annual premium.

    If your lessor has claims against you and if you agree, SwissCaution will directly pay claims.  You must then reimburse SwissCaution the amount paid to your lessor.
