2471. At the request of the insurer, the insured shall inform the insurer as soon as possible of all the circumstances surrounding the loss, including its probable cause, the nature and extent of the damage, the location of the insured property, the rights of third persons, and any concurrent insurance; he shall also provide the insurer with vouchers and attest under oath to the truth of the information.
Where, for a serious reason, the insured is unable to fulfil that obligation, he is entitled to a reasonable time in which to do so.
If the insured fails to fulfil his obligation, any interested person may do so on his behalf.
