VERY CONVENIENT AND EASY!
SAVE TIME AND NO EXTRA PAPERWORK.
The online system for cargo declaration and insurance is a great solution for our cargo insurance customers saving them valuable time and relieving from need to submit multiple documents. The system operates in three languages — English, Russian and Ukrainian and its functionality and convenience is confirmed by numerous positive reviews from our regular customers that already are using it.
The cargo shipment declaration and insurance system is available for Marine Insurance Services SIA clients who work on the basis of annual open insurance policies. Access to the system is provided by your insurance broker.
THE SYSTEM PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
- Insurance takes effect immediately after the declaration of the cargo shipment (if the shipment details match with the conditions of your general policy);
- Payment terms may be as follows:
- Once a year: minimum annual payment / premium (prepayment), with recalculation at the end of the year upon the real declared turnover.
- Once a quarter: the minimum quarterly payment / premium (prepayment), with recalculation at the end of the year upon the real declared turnover.
- Once a month (on actual data; with a delay of payment 20-55 days): payment of the premium occurs once a month upon the fact of all cargo shipments declared in the previous month. A report is prepared from the declaration system for the previous month usually prior the 10th date of each calendar month. On this basis an invoice is prepared for payment of the premium (with a payment period of 15 days), i.e. taking into account that the invoice is being prepared on the 10th date, and it is necessary to pay it by the 25th date, the average payment delay is 20-25 days, and the maximum delay is 50-55 days (for cargoes insured at the beginning of the month).
