Ocean, Air & Overland Cargo

Marine & Transit Insurance

International trade exposes your goods to loss at every stage — ocean perils, port handling, theft in transit, and customs delays. Marine and transit insurance provides comprehensive protection for your cargo from origin warehouse to final destination, across all modes of transport.

Coverage for Every Link in Your Supply Chain

International supply chains involve multiple carriers, ports, customs authorities, and transportation modes — each creating potential points of loss. Standard property policies typically exclude property in transit or limit coverage to domestic locations. Marine and transit insurance is purpose-built to cover goods as they move across the globe.

We offer both per-shipment policies (a certificate for each individual shipment) and open cargo policies (an annual policy that automatically covers all qualifying shipments without requiring individual certificates). For regular importers and exporters, an open cargo policy is typically more efficient and economical.
