Why do insurance companies ask for your place of birth?
Why do car insurance companies still ask where we were born in spite of obtaining a British passport? Can one say a lie and will the insurance be void?

They ask so they can run fraud checks and identify who you are. If you lie, you will invalidate your insurance
