Hi Pal,
insurance certificate is part of insurance policy.
Insurance policy may be isued for a single shipment,
multishipment(open) policy, for a complessive amount, for a certain period of time etc.
Being the policy covering more shipment a certificate is issued for each despatch-
Other comments appreciated
Ciao

as I know, the policy will be renewed annually and each shipment will be declared to the insurer, with details, against which an insurance certificate is issued.

If an LC calls for an insurance certificate, then an insurance policy is also acceptable but the vive-versa is not true. An insurance certificate can not substitute an insurance policy.

Strictly speaking from a bank's checker point of view, the major difference (as far as I can saw as of now) is that the certificate of insurance makes reference in its content to the insurance policy number or other details related to the
policy.
The legal or other effects of the policy versus certificate can be explained by a lawyer specialized in insurance industry
