The ONE Marine Cargo Policy covers the movement of goods from the time of attachment of risk (depending on the Incoterms) until the goods are delivered to the final destination. It protects the policyholder against loss of, or damage to, cargo subject to the Institute Clauses as published by Witherby’s. This encompasses all means of shipping of goods by road, air, sea, rail or by post. These goods are either imported, exported, distributed within RSA (inland transit) or by cross voyages (shipments that do not enter or leave RSA).

Key Benefits

  • Premium for these policies may be charged on a monthly basis (i.e. declaration basis) or, alternatively, charged on an annual 12-month basis with an option to pay the premium monthly, based on a deposit calculated on the estimated value of shipments and adjusted at the conclusion of the policy period on the actual value of shipments
  • Facultative individual marine insurance policies may be issued for one-off shipments for a certain period, usually for a specific voyage

Additional Covers

  • ONE Marine Cargo Open Declaration:
    • Based on agreed conditions and rates leaving specific detail of each consignment to be declared as and when they take place. This is an open policy and remains open until cancelled
    • Aimed at policyholders who are unable to anticipate the number of shipments they will have per year or those that do not anticipate frequent monthly shipments and who would prefer to declare each shipment as and when it takes place
  • ONE Marine Stockthroughput:
    • This is a single Marine insurance solution covering goods from Import to delivery at the retailer. A Stock Throughput policy provides the Insured with cover for their Imports, Storage and handling and/ or Export and Inland Transit.
  • ONE Marine Facultative (Once Off):
    • Single cargo consignment with no obligation on either side to repeat the insurance or to adhere to the rates and conditions in future. Every risk is assessed separately and a premium is agreed upon and payable upfront
    • Includes transit cover for the removals of household goods and personal effects transported by professional transporters
    • Issued by ONE to provide evidence that marine insurance cover is in place for a specific shipment of goods
