Let Matrix Insurance help you keep your goods moving.
Marine Transit Insurance covers your physical assets while they are being moved and for temporary storage while in the line of transit. Despite the name Marine Transit, cover extends to a wide range of transits including road, rail, air, sea and even by registered post.
Marine Transit policies are typically issued on an annual basis. This means that once your policy is set up you don’t need to think about insuring your goods each time you make a shipment or move stock. Insurance for one-off transits are also available.
Most freight forwarding companies usually include or offer insurance for your goods while being moved. However, coverage is often very limited and an expensive way of insuring. Your much better off obtaining your own transit insurance, as we can ensure you have the correct cover and is usually a much more cost effective option.
Insurers only require a few details to set up a Marine Insurance policy:
If you need to adjust limits throughout the year, that’s also fine.
Whether you are importing, exporting or moving goods within Australia we can help. Although marine transit policies are straight forward to set up, policies vary between insurers, so it’s very important to get expert advice so that you have a policy in place that will respond correctly.
