Discuss the shipment value, product vulnerability and route when considering cargo insurance. Do not assume the freight charge includes a policy or that every loss is covered.

What to confirm

Ask for the actual policy terms and claims process before dispatch, and keep packing and condition records as agreed.

Prepare these details

• Goods description, shipment value and transport route
• Packing and condition records to retain
• Policy scope, exclusions and deductible explained by the insurer
• Claim notification instructions and supporting documents

Plan the next step with FDD

Send the relevant details with your enquiry. FDD can review transport and cargo preparation options, confirm the information still needed, and explain the proposed scope before booking.
