Security features

Access and operating policies

Access to a safe deposit box requires proper identification and adherence to Synovus policies. Authorized signers on the box must present valid identification at each visit. Joint ownership or third-party authorization options are available for family members and designated agents, with clear instructions and forms to ensure proper recordkeeping.

For security and legal reasons, Synovus does not open or remove contents on behalf of a box holder except under explicit instructions or authorized court order. Customers are encouraged to maintain an inventory of contents and to secure their own insurance for stored items if desired. Synovus may offer insurance or recommend coverage options, but insurance for specific valuables is the responsibility of the box holder unless otherwise stated.
