What is 1035 Exchange Life Insurance?

The 1035 Exchange Section is a provision in the tax code, which allows for a direct transfer of accumulated funds in an endowment policy, insurance policy or annuity policy to another endowment policy, life insurance policy, or annuity policy, without creating a taxable event.

1035 exchange section—also called a tax free exchange—is part of the tax code that can work substantially in your favor. For example, when you sell shares of stock or mutual funds to buy shares of a different company or mutual funds, the profits on your investment are subject to taxes. But annuities are a tax free exchange. This means you can exchange one company's product for another's with the profits from your original investment still remaining tax-deferred until you withdrawal the funds from the annuity. This includes 1035 exchange life insurance as well.
