What is International Freight Insurance?

International freight insurance refers to a kind of protection provided for commodities transported in international trade, mainly for the loss of goods due to accidents or other force majeure during transportation, such as goods being damaged by storms at sea, A traffic accident occurs during transportation, etc.

International freight insurance is usually provided by the insurance company or its agent, and the coverage includes physical damage during the transportation of the goods, theft or loss of the goods, etc. Depending on the terms and conditions of the insurance, cargo owners can choose to purchase different types and amounts of insurance to protect the safety of their cargo.

International freight insurance is generally divided into two types: one is “cargo transportation insurance” for insurance compensation based on the value of the goods, and the other is “transportation liability insurance” for compensation based on the scope of liability.

It should be noted that international cargo insurance cannot completely avoid any loss of goods during transportation, but it can provide a safeguard for cargo owners to mitigate economic losses caused by cargo loss.
