Question

A couple who cannot find their ketubah, what should they do?

Answer

If the ketubah is definitely lost, a special ketubah text called 'Ketubah Da'ishtakach Be-ta'uta' needs to be written. However, if it is known that the ketubah was at home, and they have not moved, and only do not know where it is now, there is no need to write another ketubah.
