Temporary Transit Insurance
CIB offers Temporary Transit and Storage Insurance that addresses the unique risks and exposures of ATA carnet equipment and merchandise. It fills gaps that frequently exist in domestic insurance policies. Recent changes in the available coverage include: door-to-door protection and coverage for terrorism and war.
Not all commercial insurance policies cover goods in transit or storage outside the US.
Temporary Transit & Storage Insurance Advantages
- Carnet risks are unique since this merchandise is often in transit or storage and is only temporarily out of the country. Coverage is provided while in transit to, between, or temporarily stored in participating Carnet countries. (Refer to insurance application forms for details of coverage.)
- Pay only for the coverage needed. Premium varies based on the value of the general list and the number of temporary importations. You don’t pay for coverage in countries you don’t travel to.
- CIB represents experienced, reliable multinational insurance companies. Responsive and knowledgeable assistance is always available in the event of a claim.
