Letter Requesting Certificate of Insurance (CO)
This letter is used to request that the contractor or vendor provide a certificate of insurance showing that they have the required insurance. Using this letter to ask for a certificate of insurance may seem like a small and trivial item in the overall scheme of things, but you need to make sure that proper coverage is in place to protect your company from possible issues in the future.
The letter provides options for additional insureds, insurance requirements for subcontractors and not permitting any work to start until the certificate of insurance is provided.
