FAQs About Marine Cargo Insurance In UAE
Is marine cargo insurance mandatory in UAE?
It is not legally mandatory for all general imports, but it is effectively required for business. Banks mandate it if you are using a Letter of Credit (LC), and many Free Zone contracts require it to limit liability.
Who needs marine cargo insurance?
Any business moving goods. This includes Importers bringing goods into Jebel Ali, Exporters sending products abroad, and Freight Forwarders who need to protect their liability for client shipments.
What is the main purpose of marine insurance?
To protect your balance sheet. It covers financial loss if your goods are damaged, stolen, or lost during transit (sea, air, or land). It also protects you from “General Average”, a maritime law where you must pay a share of the ship’s rescue costs even if your own cargo is safe.
Do I need marine insurance if the seller has FOB terms?
Yes, absolutely. Under FOB (Free on Board), the seller’s responsibility ends the moment the goods are loaded onto the ship. You (the buyer) carry all the risk during the voyage, so you must purchase the insurance.
How much does marine insurance cost in the UAE?
It is very affordable. Premiums are typically calculated as a tiny percentage of the cargo value (often between 0.1% to 0.5%). For a shipment worth AED 100,000, insurance might cost as little as AED 200–500.
How does marine insurance work?
You can buy it two ways:
(i) Single Shipment: A one-time policy for a specific voyage.
(ii) Open Cover: An annual policy that automatically covers every shipment you make during the year, usually at a lower rate.
