What Is a Certificate of Insurance & Why Do You Need One?

  • Also known as COI, or proof of insurance, a certificate of insurance is like an auto ID card and provides proof that your business is insured. In certain professions, such as consulting or contracting, a COI is commonly required.
  • Providing a COI not only provides peace of mind to you and your customers, but it also makes it easier to enter into partnerships.
  • Small business owners and contractors usually require a COI that grants protection against liability concerns. Any business that provides a service with potential for high liability and loss could be asked to show a COI.
  • A COI summarizes your insurance coverage. Most people will want to confirm that you are protected before starting a job or else they could be held liable for any accidents or injuries.
