Certificate of Insurance
What is a certificate of insurance?
A certificate of insurance is a document used to provide information on specific insurance coverage. The certificate provides verification of the insurance and usually contains information on types and limits of coverage, insurance company, policy number, named insured, and the policies’ effective periods.
A certificate of insurance – also known as proof of insurance – is requested when liability and large losses are a concern. No matter what kind of client you’re working with, having the right insurance policy and proof of insurance will protect both you and your client.
Even if you haven’t been asked to show a certificate of insurance, it’s an added benefit of having proof of your small business coverage. Most insurance providers include the certificate in your initial insurance documents; if not, they are required to provide one upon your request.
Don’t want until you’re asked to provide your certificate of insurance to get the small business insurance coverage you need. Contact G2 Insurance today to establish an insurance policy that’s right for your line of work.
