Insurance policy - hokenshoken (English spelling) insurance policy

Japanese: 保険証券 - ほけんしょうけん(英語表記)insurance policy
Insurance policy - hokenshoken (English spelling) insurance policy
Also called insurance certificate. A document that clearly indicates the establishment of an insurance contract and its contents and conditions. After the establishment of an insurance contract, the insurer (insurance company) is required to prepare and deliver an insurance policy at the request of the policyholder (Commercial Code Articles 649, 664, 683, 815, 823), but usually the policy is delivered without the request of the policyholder. The items to be written on the insurance policy are stipulated in the Commercial Code Articles 649, 668, 671, 679, and 823, as well as Articles 16 and 17 of the Enforcement Regulations of the Insurance Business Act. However, the validity of the policy is not affected even if some of these items are omitted or if items other than those statutory items are added. There is a dispute about the legal nature of the insurance policy, and it is generally believed to be a certificate of evidence or a certificate of exemption from liability, and not a security. However, in the case of transportation insurance, marine cargo insurance, etc., there is a strong theory that the issued insurance policy in the form of order or bearer is a security. The insurance policy must contain the full text of the general insurance policy or a document containing the full text must be attached (Article 16 of the Enforcement Regulations of the Insurance Business Act). Since the insurance policy often contains the insurance policy terms, the term insurance policy is sometimes used synonymously with the insurance policy terms.

Japanese:
保険証書ともいう。保険契約の成立およびその内容,条件を明確に示した証書。保険契約の成立後,保険者 (保険会社) は保険契約者の請求により,保険証券を作成して交付することを要する (商法 649条1項,664,683条1項,815条2項) と規定されているが,通常は特に保険契約者の請求がなくても交付されている。保険証券の記載事項に関しては商法 649条,668条,671条,679条,823条に規定されているほか,保険業法施行規則 16条,17条にも定めがあるが,これら一部の事項を欠いても,また法定記載事項以外の事項を加えても証券の効力には影響がない。保険証券の法定性質については争いがあり,証拠証券,免責証券であって,有価証券ではないとするのが通説。しかし運送保険,海上積荷保険などにおいては,発行される指図式または無記名式の保険証券は有価証券であるとする説も有力。保険証券には普通保険約款の全文を記載するか,またはその全文を記載した書面を添付することを要する (保険業法施行規則 16条) 。なお保険証券には保険約款が記載されていることが多いため,保険証券という用語が保険約款と同義に用いられることもある。
