The unexpected happens more often than you think

Long distances and a large number of participants can increase the complexity of the supply chain. A transportation accident, a tropical storm or damage in a port terminal can result in increased costs.

The liability per law is limited, leaving you with a considerable uncovered financial gap.

As an example, if the value of your goods, transported over the sea is $100/kg, your legal liability would be $2.8/kg, leaving you with a $97.2/kg financial gap (according to the Hague-Visby Rules). With DACHSER’s Transport Insurance Air & Sea you get full coverage of your good with zero deductible.

DACHSER Transport Insurance AIR & Sea provides you with:

  • Customized, comprehensive best in class all-risk no-deductible insurance

Current situation in Suzhou: impact on the operations of DACHSER

A COVID-19 outbreak has occurred in Suzhou, China. According to an emergency notice from the Suzhou authorities, several new cases were reported locally.

As the situation is not improving in Suzhou, the local government is launching the second round of tests in the city. Meanwhile, more and more entrances of highways connecting Suzhou to and from other cities and provinces have been closed or restricted. Therefore, delays in cargo pick-ups and deliveries are expected even though the ports are operating.
