Do you know if the expense that a company incurs for insurance is allowed for tax purposes? Is it fully tax deductible and kind of insurance policies are included in the allowed expenses for tax purposes?

Yes, insurance costs for your business are generally fully tax deductible. There are some exceptions for example self-insurance or insurance for loss of earnings. You can find more details on the IRS website :
