Renewal Certificate

What Does Renewal Certificate Mean?

A renewal certificate is a document issued by an insurance company to its policyholders after they have renewed their policy. It serves as proof that the policy has been successfully renewed and confirms that valid coverage remains in effect for the new policy period

Insuranceopedia Explains Renewal Certificate

Some policies renew automatically; however, if a policy does not have an automatic renewal feature, the policyholder must contact the insurer to arrange for the renewal. If the insurance company approves the renewal, they will issue a renewal certificate to the policyholder.

Insurance companies save time and resources by sending renewal certificates rather than issuing entirely new policies.
