64. The client for an insurance contract may, if no insurance representative interacted with the client at the time the latter consented to the contract, cancel the contract within 10 days after receiving the policy, unless the contract has already expired at that time or, in the case of a travel insurance contract, unless a trip that falls under the coverage has already started.
A participant may also, if no insurance representative interacted with the participant at the time he or she enrolled, cancel his or her enrollment on the same condition and within the same time limit after receiving the insurance certificate.
In the case of an individual insurance of persons contract, the policy referred to in the first paragraph is the one that evidences the existence of the final contract.
If an insurance contract is made or a participant enrolls under that contract at the same time another contract is entered into, the other contract retains all its effects despite the cancellation of the insurance contract or of the enrollment, as the case may be.
The first and second paragraphs do not apply to insurance expiring within 10 days after the client’s consent or the participant’s enrollment, as the case may be.
