The Granddictionnaire also gives 'fiche de souscription' for 'slip' in the insurance context, although I have also seen it indicated as 'fiche d'applicaton'.

I used to work for a reinsurance broker in London.

Avis d'échéance


Explanation:
Generally, as happened here, a broker in London presents a proposal for reinsurance on behalf of its clients to an underwriter at Lloyd's. The broker identifies the key points of the desired reinsurance sought on a card called a "placing slip." Such a slip briefly identifies the reinsured, the details of the risk, and a few other essential terms. Underwriters who desire to participate in the reinsurance write a percentage of the total risk which they might assume, initial the slip, and affix a stamp. The placing slip is essentially the contract arrangement until an actual policy, called a "wording," is prepared. Policy preparation is often done at Lloyd's signing office and quite frequently occurs several years later.

PLACING SLIP See SLIP

http://www.reasegurador.com/glossaries/glossaryp.htm

SLIP The document used by the broker for negotiating a placing in a SUBSCRIPTION MARKET. The underwriter signifies his acceptance on the broker’s slip.
SLIP POLICY A SIGNING SLIP that has been adapted to serve as a policy in place of a formal policy document.

http://www.reasegurador.com/glossaries/glossarys.htm

"broker's placing slip" means a document that:
(a)
is evidence of a contract of insurance; and
(b)
bears a notation by an insurer setting out the extent of the insurance cover that the insurer agrees to provide under the contract.

Avis d'échéance : document dans lequel l'assureur indique le montant de la cotisation et la date à partir de laquelle celle-ci est due.

After I posted the information above, I found a recent Kudoz that you may wish to refer to:

avis d\'aliment

From a contract between a client and their supplier. The phrase is \'certificat d\'assurances ou avis d\'aliment ou télex d\'aliment\', from a list of documents the supplier must send to the client when goods are shipped.
declaration of interest
déclaration d\'aliment, avis d\'aliment (LGA)

http://www.actuaries.ca/publications/lexicon/lextd.html

Since this Kudoz question was posted, the web address has been changed. Avis ... is not there.

Qu\'est-ce qu\'un avis d\'échéance ou appel de cotisation ?
L\'avis d\'échéance ou l\'appel de cotisation est le courrier par lequel l\'assureur demande le paiement de la cotisation.

neutral  cmwilliams (X): I agree with your explanation of what a slip is but an 'avis d'écheance' or 'avis d'aliment' is not the same thing.
