Door-to-Door Coverage

Marine Cargo Insurance

International contractors ship millions of dollars in specialized equipment, materials, and tools to overseas jobsites. Marine cargo insurance protects those shipments from the moment they leave your facility to the moment they arrive — regardless of how many modes of transport are involved.

Protect Your Cargo at Every Stage

Shipping equipment internationally is complex: multiple carriers, customs clearance, port handling, and overland transport all create opportunities for damage, theft, or loss. Standard property policies often exclude cargo in transit or limit coverage to specific geographic areas. Marine cargo insurance fills those gaps with comprehensive, worldwide protection.

What Marine Cargo Covers:

Ocean freight (FCL and LCL containerized cargo)
Air freight of equipment and materials
Overland transit including cross-border trucking
Port storage and customs holding
Heavy machinery and specialized contractor equipment
Loss from theft, piracy, and hijacking
General average contributions
War risk at sea (separate endorsement available)
Marine cargo insurance for contractor equipment

Per-Shipment or Open Marine Policy

We offer both individual shipment certificates and open cargo policies for contractors with regular international shipping needs. Open policies auto-cover all qualifying shipments.

Agreed Value vs. CIF Coverage

Choose between agreed value coverage (pre-agreed loss settlement) or standard CIF (cost + insurance + freight) basis, depending on your cargo type and carrier relationships.

Ship With Confidence

Protect your equipment and materials from warehouse to jobsite, anywhere in the world.
