Insurance of carriers and forwarders

What is this insurance for?

During the transportation of cargo, there are situations when the entrusted cargo to the carrier or forwarder is damaged during an accident, hijacked, or delivered to the wrong address. Such situations in business cannot be avoided, but the risk can be reduced by insuring civil liability of the carrier and/or freight forwarder for the transport or forwarding of the cargo. Insurance applies to international transportation (under the CMR convention) and, if necessary for cabotage transport.

What is insured against?

In case of losses due to the fault of the carrier or forwarder, the insurance will compensate the affected customer for the following losses:

• For the transported cargo or its part (theft, damage, or spoilage);
• For financial losses incurred by the consignor or consignee due to unfulfilled or improperly fulfilled obligations under the contract of carriage or forwarding;
• For damage caused by third parties during transportation;
• For entrusted temporary storage/use of various types of containers, trailers, semi-trailers.

Legal costs incurred in rescuing cargo may also be reimbursed.

Extended liability for cargo can be insured if required (e.g. 40 SDR/kg for cabotage in Germany).

What is cargo insurance used for?

As a general rule, carriers’ liability insurance only covers damage where the carrier is at fault. That means if carriers’ fault is not established, the owner of the cargo can experience losses due to cargo damage or when it’s lost.

Cargo insurance provides comprehensive protection from sudden accidents, reduces the business risk of the owner of  cargo and provides trusted financial guarantees, that losses will be indemnified for damaged or lost cargo in the event of an insured event.

Cargo insurance will be applied to:

• Cargo on board;
• Reasonable expenses to reduce or avoid losses incurred.

Cargo insurance can be additionally applied to:

• Financial interests related to the cargo (freight, excise duties, etc.);
• Property during temporary storage in logistics, customs warehouses.

What is included in cargo insurance?

If not agreed upon differently, the insurance protection includes:

• Traffic accident on the road;
• Theft;
• Third party illegal action;
• Natural disasters;
• Other insurance protections, which is agreed upon in advance.
