Choose your transport and goods insurance
If you buy and sell goods, are a carrier or a logistics company, we have different types of transport policy that cover the material damage which your goods may sustain during transport by land, sea or air, both in this country and abroad.
Types of transport policy
Category that covers the goods corresponding to sales, purchases or both, or the volume of goods transported during the year. This entails payment of a deposit premium that is adjusted at the end of the year.
A temporary policy that insures the goods on a single journey or a fixed number of journeys, at the end of which the policy is automatically cancelled.
Coverage for one year of goods transported in specific vehicles identified in the policy by their number plates.
A type of policy without a deposit premium that requires each transport operation to be declared. The amount will be adjusted at agreed intervals, for example, every month. This type of policy is suitable for policyholders who regularly and frequently make similar shipments of goods.
