Carrier’s liability insurance is a mandatory coverage for international road transport under the CMR convention. It protects carriers against liability for cargo from the moment of acceptance to delivery — both domestically and internationally.
The insurance covers loss, damage, or delay of goods, financial losses caused to the sender or consignee due to improper carriage, damage to third parties arising from transported goods, as well as loss or damage to additional equipment such as containers or trailers. Legal defense and salvage costs are also included.
Freight forwarder’s liability insurance provides protection for forwarding companies against financial losses resulting from their professional activities.
It covers claims arising from errors, negligence, or failure to properly perform logistics and forwarding services, including damage to clients, partners, or third parties.
This coverage helps manage the risks associated with the freight forwarder’s contractual and legal responsibilities, ensuring cargo is handled and delivered according to customer expectations and legal requirements.
Cargo insurance protects goods in transit against risks that may occur during transportation.
It is designed for cargo owners — exporters, importers, manufacturers, or traders — seeking to safeguard against financial losses caused by cargo damage, loss, theft, or natural disasters.
The insurance is valid for domestic and international shipments, regardless of the mode of transport, and can cover either single shipments or long-term transportation contracts.
Logistics operator’s liability insurance (also known as warehousing and handling liability insurance) protects logistics companies against losses caused by damage to clients’ cargo, equipment, or property during loading, unloading, storage, or handling.
The coverage may include loss, damage, or third-party liability arising from the operator’s actions or negligence.
This insurance can also be included as an add-on to a general liability policy, providing extended protection for logistics operations.
