Can I withdraw money from AIA?

Yes, you can withdraw money from AIA, depending on the type of policy or plan you hold:

• Investment-Linked Plans (ILPs / VULs): You can make a partial withdrawal from your account or fund value while the policy remains active.
• Traditional Life Insurance Policies: These usually do not allow cash withdrawals, but you may be eligible to apply for a policy loan against the policy.
• PRS (Private Retirement Scheme) / MPF: Withdrawals are allowed under specific retirement, pre-retirement, age, or medical conditions depending on your region (such as Malaysia or Hong Kong).
• AIA+ Wallet: You can withdraw your full balance (partial withdrawals are not permitted).

How to Request a Withdrawal

1. Check Eligibility: Ensure your policy has completed any required lock-in periods and maintains the minimum remaining fund balance.
2. Submit a Request: You can submit requests online through regional customer portals/apps (like My AIA) or via a physical surrender/withdrawal form submitted to an AIA branch or through your servicing agent.
3. Provide Details: You will need to submit your identification, policy details, and bank account information for direct crediting or PayNow (depending on your country's local AIA branch rules, such as AIA Singapore or AIA Malaysia).

You can withdraw money from AIA online through the AIA+ App or customer portal, or by submitting a physical withdrawal form through your agent or customer service center.

Because AIA operates in multiple countries (such as Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines), the exact steps depend on your region and the type of account or policy you hold (such as an investment-linked policy, wallet, or retirement scheme).

How to Withdraw via the Mobile App or Portal

1. Log in to your regional AIA app (such as AIA+ or My AIA) using your credentials or biometric login.
2. Navigate to the wallet, policy details, or service request section on your dashboard.
3. Select the option for withdrawal or policy payout.
4. Enter details including the amount you wish to withdraw and your bank account information (or select a fast-payment method like PayNow if available in your region).
5. Verify the transaction using the one-time password (OTP) sent to your mobile phone.

How to Withdraw via Form (For Investment-Linked or Policy Surrender)

1. Download the relevant Partial Withdrawal or Policy Surrender form from your local AIA website.
2. Fill out the required surrender units or withdrawal amount.
3. Attach documents such as a copy of your bank statement or passbook for direct credit verification.
4. Submit the documents to your AIA insurance agent or local customer service branch.

AIA typically takes 10 to 30 working days to process and pay out claims, depending on the type of claim and whether all required documents are submitted.

Payout Timelines and Process

• Standard Claims Processing: Takes 10 to 30 working days after complete document submission.
• Bank Crediting: Funds are generally credited to your nominated bank account within 3 working days after approval.
• Fast-Track Options: In certain regions like Singapore, digital fund withdrawals or payouts via linked accounts (such as PayNow) can take as little as 2 hours.
• Initial Feedback: You will typically receive an update or reference number via SMS or email within 7 to 10 working days of filing.

You can track your submission status online or check guidelines directly through AIA Philippines Claims.

Yes, you can withdraw money from an AIA investment-linked plan through either a partial withdrawal or a full surrender of the policy.

How Withdrawals Work

• Partial Withdrawal: You can take out a portion of your account value to meet financial needs while keeping your insurance coverage active.
• Minimum Balance and Limits: Most plans require you to leave a minimum remaining balance (for example, RM5,000 in Malaysia) and set a minimum withdrawal amount (such as RM1,000).
• Full Withdrawal (Surrender): You can completely withdraw your total fund value by terminating or surrendering the policy, which also ends your insurance coverage.

How to Request a Withdrawal

• Online Portal/App: Log in to your regional customer portal or mobile application, such as the My AIA SG App for Singapore, to submit a service or payout request.
• AIA Agent: Contact your financial planner or agent to fill out the required partial withdrawal or alteration forms.
• Processing Time: Funds are typically credited to your designated bank account or via fast transfer options (like PayNow in Singapore) within a few working days after approval.

You can withdraw money from your AIA policy online through the My AIA Portal or by submitting a physical policy fund withdrawal form.

Manual/Alternative Methods

• Physical Forms: Fill out a Policy Fund Withdrawal Form or Cash Surrender Request Form available at local AIA branches.
• Requirements: Provide valid IDs for the policy owner and any irrevocable beneficiaries. Additional documents like a court order or board resolution may be required for minors or corporate-owned policies.
