What is an elevation certificate?
An Elevation Certificate is an important tool that documents your building’s elevation. If you live in a high-risk flood zone, you should provide an Elevation Certificate to your insurance agent to obtain flood insurance and ensure that your premium accurately reflects your risk. Obtaining an Elevation Certificate also can help you make decisions about rebuilding and mitigation after a disaster. The elevation certificate also can be used to support a request for a Letter of Map Amendment or Revision (LOMA OR LOMR-F).
