Some exporters leave their international cargo insurance to their freight handling company, but in doing so they often pay over the odds for sub-standard cargo insurance coverage and run the risk of under-insurance based on various caveats and clauses.

Bellwood Prestbury can help you to arrange international cargo insurance to protect your valuable cargo literally anywhere in the world, including Afghanistan, Iraq and other high-risk areas.

Bellwood Prestbury has years of experience in arranging international cargo insurance that will provide full cover against damage or loss for sea, road, rail or air cargo. Insurance for delayed delivery of time-sensitive goods can also be included.

International cargo insurance

We can arrange international cargo insurance on terms to suit your business:

  • Specific (voyage) policy – specially organised to cover a one-off shipment, essential if you are dealing with different value cargos into different high-risk areas
  • Open cover – international freight insurance for multiple shipments, that you call off against, each time you send a shipment
  • Contingent Cargo insurance – seller’s only insurance where you have established that the buyer is responsible for insurance in transit – i.e. you’re supplying goods Free on Board (FOB) or Ex-works – but you know that you might have difficulty getting paid if the shipment arrives damaged, partially missing, or fails to arrive at all
