- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
