Chapter 1.5. Revised Unclaimed Property Act
32-34-1.5-14. Property Located in Another State or Foreign Country

Sec. 14. (a) The following rules apply under this section:
(1) The last known address of an apparent owner is any description, code, or other indication of the location of the apparent owner which identifies the state, even if the description, code, or indication of location is not sufficient to direct the delivery of first class United States mail to the apparent owner.
(2) If the United States postal ZIP code associated with the apparent owner is for a post office located in this state, this state is deemed to be the state of the last known address of the apparent owner unless other records associated with the apparent owner specifically identify the physical address of the apparent owner to be in another state.
(3) If the address under subdivision (2) is in another state, the other state is deemed to be the state of the last known address of the apparent owner.
(4) The address of the apparent owner of a life or endowment insurance policy or annuity contract or its proceeds is presumed to be the address of the insured or annuitant if a person other than the insured or annuitant is entitled to the amount owed under the policy or contract and the address of the other person is not known by the insurance company and cannot be determined under IC 27-2.
(b) The attorney general may take custody of property presumed abandoned, whether located in this state, another state, or a foreign country if:
(1) the last known address of the apparent owner in the records of the holder is in this state; or
(2) the records of the holder do not reflect the identity or last known address of the apparent owner, but the attorney general has determined that the last known address of the apparent owner is in this state.
(c) Except as provided in subsection (d), if records of a holder reflect multiple addresses for an apparent owner and this state is the state of the most recently recorded address, this state may take custody of property presumed abandoned, whether located in this state or another state.
(d) If it appears from records of the holder that the most recently recorded address of the apparent owner under subsection (c) is a temporary address and this state is the state of the next most recently recorded address that is not a temporary address, this state may take custody of the property presumed abandoned.
(e) Except as provided elsewhere in this section, the attorney general may take custody of property presumed abandoned, whether located in this state, another state, or a foreign country, if the holder is domiciled in this state or is this state or a governmental subdivision, agency, or instrumentality of this state, and:
(1) another state or foreign country is not entitled to the property because there is no last known address of the apparent owner or other person entitled to the property in the records of the holder; or
(2) the state or foreign country of the last known address of the apparent owner or other person entitled to the property does not provide for custodial taking of the property.
If the holder's state of domicile has changed since the time property was presumed abandoned, the holder's state of domicile in this subsection is deemed to be the state where the holder was domiciled at the time the property was presumed abandoned.
(f) Property is not subject to custody of the attorney general under subsection (e) if the property is specifically exempt from custodial taking under the law of this state or the state or foreign country of the last known address of the apparent owner.
(g) If a holder's state of domicile has changed since the time property was presumed abandoned, the holder's state of domicile in this section is deemed to be the state where the holder was domiciled at the time the property was presumed abandoned.
