An insurance endorsement (also known as a rider) is a document that is attached to a particular insurance policy which modifies or changes the coverage represented by that policy.

For example, most renter's insurance policies generically cover standard items at depreciated replacement value up to a particular total, largely based on the size of the domicile. One might have the insurance company add an endorsement to cover full replacement value in the event of a loss (which will result in an increased premium). One might also have valuable objects (e.g., engagement ring) that would not ordinarily covered in full by the policy, so a rider may be added in order to cover that particular object (again, likely resulting in an increased premium).
