Insuring International and High-Value Shipments: What Every Business Needs to Know

When your business is shipping overseas or sending high-value items, the stakes are much higher. One lost, stolen, or damaged package doesn't just cost you money - it can cost you a loyal customer. That's why choosing the right international shipping insurance provider matters, especially for businesses moving expensive goods or shipping regularly across borders.


The Challenges With International & High-Value Shipping
  • Carrier insurance is costly, especially for international destinations.
  • Coverage gaps often exclude luxury goods, electronics, jewelry, or certain countries.
  • Claims can be slow, involving long forms, customs documentation, and inconsistent carrier processes.
  • Currency, customs, and cross-border issues increase the likelihood of delays and disputes.
  • Higher theft/loss rates on long-distance and multi-carrier routes.

For growing eCommerce brands and high-value shippers, these risks can add up fast.
