INSURANCE
Each handling of a shipment involves a certain risk of damage that may be caused to the shipment, and the situation in road transport is similar. The international road transport of goods is governed by the international CMR convention which defines a limited liability of transporter for damage caused to a shipment by the amount of 8.33 XDR for 1 kg gross weight of the shipment. The formula shows that the mandatory insurance does not cover full value of the expensive shipments with low weight, such as electronics, certain machines, food, etc.
