  • Liability

  • Cargo/Freight

  • Warehouse to Warehouse Extension

  • Loading and unloading Risk

  • Nuclear Hazards

    In general, marine insurance policies tend to exclude coverage for damages or losses resulting from nuclear hazards. This means that if a marine vessel or its cargo is affected by a nuclear incident, such as radiation contamination or explosions, the insurance policy may not provide compensation for those specific damages.

  • Wear & Tear, Delay, or Loss of Market

    Marine insurance does not cover normal wear and tear, gradual deterioration, or mechanical breakdown from regular use. Similarly, delays or loss of market are excluded from coverage.

  • Illegal Activities & Insolvency

    Losses from transporting illegal goods are not covered. Likewise, financial losses caused by the insolvency or liquidation of the shipowner or cargo owner are excluded from coverage.
