Did you know?

Nearly 80% of burglaries in New Zealand are residential.
Popular targets are easy-to-carry items – such as jewellery.

A pre-approved IVAA jewellery valuation will ensure that you have proof of ownership, and peace of mind knowing you’ll receive a like-for-like replacement. An up-to-date and accurate valuation will speed things up if you do need to make an insurance claim.

How do I protect my valuable jewellery?

Have proof of ownership – keep a copy of your valuation or the store receipt with photos of your items.
Don’t under-insure – cover your valuables for their correct value. An under-insured item means you lose out when lodging a claim.
Update your valuations – jewellery tends to increase in value, so you should get a new valuation every 2-3 years, otherwise your insurance policy won’t cover the replacement cost for your items.
Use a trusted, independent valuer – engage a JVSNZ-accredited valuer to ensure you receive an independent and detailed valuation that will meet all your insurers’ needs.
Add to your policy – as you add purchases or gifts to your valuable collection, make sure you tell your insurer so your policy covers all your new pieces.
Travel light – check your policy to see what coverage you have while away from home and only take what you will wear on holidays. Be careful about becoming a target for savvy thieves.
Safely store items at home – jewellery is quick to grab and easy to conceal, making it a prime target for thieves operating in residential areas. Don’t keep valuable items in easy-to-reach or obvious places and consider installing a safe.
