The holiday rush is a busy time for shipping companies and airlines. Unfortunately, this increased volume often leads to a surge in cargo damage by up to 20%. As an exporter or importer, dealing with damaged goods can be a frustrating and costly experience.
Beyond the Obvious: What Can You Claim?
When your cargo arrives damaged, the financial implications extend beyond the immediate loss of goods. You may be eligible to claim for a variety of costs, including:
- Cargo Compensation: This covers the value of the damaged goods, calculated based on the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value.
- Freight Costs: You can claim the expenses incurred for shipping the damaged cargo.
- Insurance Premiums: While you may be able to claim for additional insurance costs, there are often limitations.
- Loss Mitigation Costs: This includes expenses incurred to minimize the damage, such as refumigation, repackaging, or reconditioning.
- Loss of Profit: In certain cases, you may be eligible to claim for lost profits due to the damage or delay.
