Marine Cargo claim

Let's lodge your marine cargo claim

A few things before you start — they protect your claim and the recovery.

  • Send a written letter of demand to the carrier / shipping line / airline holding them liable — this preserves the right to recover.
  • Don't authorise repairs or replacement without the insurer's approval, and keep the damaged goods for inspection.
  • Report theft to police, and gather the commercial invoice, bill of lading / airway bill and any survey report to attach.
