The old flood insurance manual used to have a section (below) on this. The new manual is silent. Accord has a special Evidence of Flood Insurance Form that used to meet these requirements - but a standard Evidence of Property Insurance is not going to give you all the information that you need and I believe it would not be acceptable. Just have them sent you the declarations page - how hard can it be??
D. Evidence of Insurance
A copy of the Flood Insurance Application and
premium payment, or a copy of the declarations
page, is sufficient evidence of proof of purchase for
new policies. The NFIP does not recognize binders.
However, for informational purposes only, the NFIP
recognizes certificates or evidences of flood insurance,
and similar forms, provided for renewal policies if the
following information is included:
1. Policy Form/Type (GP, DP, RCBAP*, PRP)
2. Policy Term
3. Policy Number
4. Insured’s Name and Mailing Address
5. Property Location
6. Current Flood Risk Zone
7. Rated Flood Risk Zone (zone used for rating,
including when grandfathering or issuing coverage
under the PRP Eligibility Extension)
8. Grandfathered: Y/N
9. Mortgagee Name and Address
10. Coverage Limits and Deductibles
11. Annual Premium
* For an RCBAP, include the number of units
