During the process of international and domestic transportation of goods, one of the most important points is cargo insurance, which is aimed at ensuring the safety of transported goods, as well as the ability to compensate financial losses arising during the transportation, regardless of the fault of the contractor.

Many companies believe that in order to minimize risks, cargo owners should prefer carriers that have CMR insurance (voluntary insurance of civil liability of the carrier for international transportation), or freight forwarders working exclusively with carriers that insure their liability.

However, it should be noted that CMR insurance does not cover all losses upon the occurrence of an insured event, which should be taken into account when delivering expensive goods. In this case, the insured liability of the carrier involves only partial reimbursement, and for such goods, additional insurance should be applied directly to the cargo.

Should also be considered, that when deciding on the amount of insurance compensation for CMR insurance, all restrictions and carrier liability limits established by law will be applied (for example, the carrier liability limit based on the weight of the cargo), and also if a third party is guilty, then claims will need to be presented to a third party.

The practice of supplementary cargo insurance is widespread in all countries of the world due to increased risks during transportation by air and sea vessels, railway rolling stock and cars. If you have your own insurance policy, then the insurer comes in, reimbursing losses regardless of who is guilty.
