  Savings Bond Redemption and Replacement
Collapse
Program Description

Savings Bond Redemption assistance allows bond owners in areas affected by a Presidentially declared disaster to redeem bonds prior to the expiration of the initial 12-month holding period. Approximately 40,000 financial institutions across the country redeem savings bonds.
 
Savings Bond Replacement assistance allows bond holders to request expedited service for the replacement of missing bonds, particularly those destroyed during a disaster. 

Savings Bond Redemption and Savings Bond Replacement are not mutually exclusive activities. You may need both types of assistance. Both types of assistance can be requested for the same bond if a bond less than 12 months old was destroyed in a disaster.

General Program Requirements

You may utilize the Savings Bond Replacement program if you have a bond that has been destroyed.

You may utilize the Savings Bond Redemption program if you live in an area affected by a presidentially declared disaster.

No evidence of hardship or property damage is required.
