It's worth noting that an assignee may also be referred to as a beneficiary, depending on the specific terms of the policy. In some cases, the terms "assignee" and "beneficiary" may be used interchangeably, but in others, they may refer to different legal concepts.
Since the policyowner actually owns the policy, not the insurer, the owner has every right to give the policy away just like any other owned piece of property; the insurer's permission is not required. The transfer of ownership is referred to as assignment and the new owner is the assignee.
You can request a transfer form directly from your life insurance company. However, you may also have to change the policy to indicate that the insured is no longer the owner. After the transfer, the new owner is responsible for making all premium payments.
The insured needs to either endorse the policy document or make a deed of assignment and register the same with the insurer. A form prescribed by the insurers must be filled and signed. In case of conditional assignment, your reason needs to be mentioned as well.
