WHAT IS AN INSURANCE DECLARATION PAGE?

An Insurance Declaration Page (DEC Sheet) is usually the first page of your insurance policy and often summarizes your coverage by providing the following information:

Who is insured?

What is insured?

How it is insured (what type of coverage)?

How much it is insured for (policy limits)?

How long the insurance policy is valid for (effective and expiration dates)?

Looking through all the pages to understand the basics of your insurance policy would be complicated. The insurance DEC page provides the insurance policyholder with a basic overview of their insurance policy in one area so everything is clearly outlined as well as the costs associated with the coverage listed on the page.

The Insurance Declaration page is the most important part of your insurance policy because:

1. It dictates what insurance coverage you have and how your claim will be paid;

2. It tells you what the limits are for each section of the policy; and

3. It includes the premiums charged for the coverage you have purchased.

The declaration page is then followed by the second most important part of your policy, the policy wording which then defines each of the terms found on the DEC page and how they apply in a claim.

Our agents at Apron Agencies can help you review all the sections of your insurance DEC pages and make sure you understand what insurance you have and how well you will be covered in the event of a claim.

Protecting your business should be your number one priority!

You have worked hard to build your business and at Apron Agencies, LLC, we want to ensure that you have the right safeguards in place to protect your business.

As you start researching for the best policy, here are three things to think about:

1. Your Coverage - A great deal may not be a great deal. Look past the price to your worse case scenario. If something were to happen to your business, would you be short on coverage? You may pay less now but more when you make a claim and your problem is not sufficiently covered.

2. Your Future - A lot can happen in a year. Pay special attention to coverage limits and exclusions. As your business continues to grow, you want to make sure your policy can grow with your company.

3. Your Current Policy - Look at what your current plan offers and how it differs from your needs.

At Apron Agencies, we can help you find the right policy to fill in all the gaps. Our independent insurance agents have the tools to help you choose the right insurance policy for your commercial needs at the right price. Call us today at (504) 416-0237!

Many business owners fail to consider how they would manage if a fire or natural disaster rendered their business premises temporarily unusable. According to FEMA, almost 40 percent of all businesses that close down following a disaster never open again.


With advanced planning, there are measures you can take to protect your company’s bottom line. To safeguard your business, consider business continuity coverage, an insurance coverage added to your property package that funds the restoration of your business operations after a loss.
