Taking out goods transport insurance
Goods transport insurance is a type of insurance that protects companies and individuals against financial losses as a result of damage to or loss of goods during transport. It can be used for various types of transport, such as road transport, sea freight and air freight.
Insurance covers loss
The insurance covers the damage to or loss of goods during transport, regardless of whether it is the fault of the carrier, the weather, the traffic conditions or other circumstances beyond the control of the owner of the goods. The insurance can also provide cover for other risks, such as theft, fire, explosions and natural disasters.
It is important to take out goods transport insurance to limit financial risks and to safeguard the continuity of your company. In the event of damage to or loss of goods, the insurance can provide compensation for the losses, so that you do not have to bear the costs yourself. It is important, though, to look carefully at the policy conditions to see which cases are and are not covered by the insurance.
