They can also be stolen. As in all sectors, zero risk does not exist, which is why transport insurance exists. Transport companies are insured, but even if they are liable for any problems with your products, the compensation you will receive will be capped. There is therefore a good chance that it will not compensate for the financial loss actually corresponding to the loss of your goods. An adapted transport insurance allows to be compensated more generously, even when the responsibility of the carrier cannot be engaged (goods insurance "in the event of major force"). For international shipments, the sharing of responsibilities between the sender and the buyer is governed by the Incoterms . There are a dozen of them, each corresponding to a different distribution of responsibility for the different tasks (packaging, loading, routing, customs management, routing, unloading, etc.). Each mode of transport has specific transport insurance conditions: - road transport insurance - maritime transport insurance - air transport insurance - river transport insurance Historically, maritime transport was the first mode of transport to develop this type of rule. They were then rolled out to other modes of transport. Summary of the guide LIRE NOTRE GUIDE: ASSURANCE DE MARCHANDISES Pratique Transport de marchandises : que faire en cas de sinistre ?
