Cargo Insurance
Secure goods in transit against loss, theft, or damage—by land, sea, or air.
Cover that fits the way you work
Goods can be lost, stolen or damaged at any point in their journey, and carriers’ liability is often limited. Cargo and goods-in-transit insurance protects the value of your goods from collection to delivery.
Who it’s for
- Importers and exporters
- Hauliers, couriers and freight forwarders
- Manufacturers shipping finished goods
- Businesses moving stock between sites

Common questions
Isn’t my carrier responsible if goods are damaged?
Carriers’ liability is often limited by contract or convention to far less than the goods are worth. Cargo insurance covers the shortfall.
Can I insure every shipment automatically?
Yes. An annual open cover policy can insure all shipments within agreed limits, so you don’t have to arrange cover each time.
