Question
If our ketubah is lost, what should be done in the meantime until a new ketubah is written?
Answer
Hello
A couple is not allowed to sleep together in the house as long as they do not have a ketubah, so it is necessary to immediately contact a local rabbinical authority and obtain a new ketubah in place of the lost one.
This ketubah has a different text and is called 'Ketubah DeIrkasa'.
You can also print the text attached to this answer and fill it out with the help of a scholar knowledgeable in the laws of ketubot.
