Comprehensive Protection for Goods in Transit
Whether your business imports, exports, or transports goods within Australia, those goods face risks every time they move. From weather damage and theft to accidents and handling errors, the financial impact of lost or damaged cargo can be significant.
Marine Transit Insurance provides financial protection for goods and merchandise while being transported by road, rail, air, or sea — whether domestically or internationally.
What the Policy Covers
Marine Transit Insurance is designed to protect your business against loss, damage, or theft of goods while in transit. Cover can include:
Policies can be arranged on either an Annual Transit or Single Transit basis, depending on your business activity and shipping frequency.
Annual Transit – Marine Cargo Insurance
Ideal for businesses that ship goods regularly throughout the year.
Annual Transit policies provide ongoing cover for multiple shipments, offering convenience and cost efficiency.
Coverage Options Include:
This flexible option ensures your goods are protected throughout the year without needing to arrange individual policies for each shipment.
Single Transit – Marine Cargo Insurance
Perfect for businesses that move goods less frequently or for one-off shipments.
A Single Transit policy provides cover for a specific, pre-declared shipment or journey.
Coverage Options Include:
This is a simple and effective way to safeguard valuable cargo on a one-off basis.
Why It Matters
Transporting goods exposes your business to risks beyond your control — including accidents, handling errors, or natural events.
