In international trade, one fire, one collision, or one storm can cause huge losses. Let's talk about Cargo Insurance in a simple chat format.


Q: What is Cargo Insurance?
A: Cargo insurance is a specialized insurance that protects your goods against financial loss due to accidents, natural disasters, theft, damage, or other risks during transportation.


Q: What risks does cargo face during transportation?
A: Common risks include: • Natural disasters (typhoons, floods, earthquakes) • Accidents (collisions, sinking, fire, explosion) • Handling damage (dropping, crushing, improper loading) • External risks (theft, robbery, rain damage, pollution)


Q: Why should I buy cargo insurance?
A: Because international shipping involves long distances, multiple handlings, and high risks. Carrier liability is usually limited. Without insurance, you may suffer heavy financial losses if something goes wrong.


Q: What are the main types of cargo insurance?
A: • By transport mode: Ocean, Land, Air, Postal • By scope: Import/Export Insurance & Inland Insurance

Most popular for international shipments is ICC (A) All Risks coverage.
