Can I buy a Life Insurance Policy for my Spouse ?

Yes - UK Insurance rules state there must be an insurable interest - so between a husband & wife it is Ok to arrange a life insurance policy. The spouse can always arrange a single policy for themselves. Also both parties must consent to this arrangement.

Can I get a Life Insurance on my Spouse without them knowing ?

No - both parties must consent to this arrangement ie; you cannot just apply on their behalf without their knowledge.

Can I put my Spouse on my current Life Insurance Policy ?

Can a Spouse be a Life Insurance Beneficiary ?

Yes they can - if you wish to. Either the spouse can own your life insurance plan directly; classed as life of another [ see comments above re Insurable interest ]. Note if they died first though, this can cause issues with the insurer having to undue this arrangement & may require additional legal costs by you seeking specialist advice. The alternative is to put the policy into trust where the Spouse is either one of or the sole beneficiary.

Can my Spouse be a Trustee on my Life Insurance Policy ?

Yes they can - if you wish to. If you put the policy into trust where for either spouse or as the sole beneficiary.
