Frequently Asked Questions
What is a certificate of insurance (COI)?
A certificate of insurance is a one-page document, usually an ACORD 25 form, that shows a third party which policies you carry, the policy numbers, dates, and limits. Clients, general contractors, landlords, and freight brokers commonly ask for one before you start work.
What information do I need to request a certificate?
Send the certificate holder’s full legal name and mailing address, plus any project or contract it is for. If the contract requires additional insured status, a waiver of subrogation, primary and non-contributory wording, or specific limits, include those details or attach the contract language.
What is the difference between a certificate holder and an additional insured?
A certificate holder only receives proof that you have insurance; it gets no coverage under your policy. An additional insured is added to your policy by endorsement and can be protected for claims arising from your work. Being named as an additional insured may require a policy change, so let us know if your contract asks for it.
