CMR INSURANCE

CMR insurance – insurance for transported goods and carriers – is an indispensable and mandatory product by law in the case of domestic and international transport. The CMR policy has as beneficiary the carrier, as a carrier, who is insured the responsibility during the transport, for the vehicles stipulated in the insurance contract.

CMR Insurance

The basic principles of the CMR policy are the same from one insurer to another, but the insurance conditions are different, depending on the internal policies within each company. Therefore, understanding the contractual clauses and selecting the right product are essential.

The CMR insurance covers liability for companies transporting goods nationally or internationally with specified vehicles. It protects against damage or destruction of goods entrusted for transport, as listed in the insurance policy.

The CMR insurance covers risks related to the total, partial loss, or damage of the cargo. It also covers delays in transport if it is found that the delay caused damage.

The liability of the carrier starts from the receipt of the goods until their delivery. The carrier is responsible for the total, partial loss or damage of the transported products, as well as for exceeding the delivery term.

The CMR insurance covers risks related to the total, partial loss, or damage of the cargo. It also covers delays in transport if it is found that the delay caused damage.

Covered risks

Only the responsibilities incumbent on the carrier as a carrier for damages caused to goods transported by vehicles are subject to insurance, according to the provisions of Articles 17 and 23 of the “Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (WRC)”, both on the territory Romania, as well as abroad. The validity of the insurance can be determined on a certain transport / trip, or on a certain period of time.

Risks covered:

loss and damage of goods during road transport and theft, with the mention that if the vehicle loaded with goods is transported part of the route by sea, inland waterway, railway or air in the execution of a unitary transport without unloading the goods from the vehicle, this policy covers the entire mixed transport.
delay in delivery, within the limits of transport taxes.
within the insured amount, the reasonable expenses incurred to prevent the occurrence of the risk, save or limit the damages, as well as the expertise and court expenses when the insured was obliged to pay damages in a civil action.

The inclusion of theft risk coverage differs from one insurance company to another. Some insurers do not consider theft as part of a CMR insurance, so the damage caused by theft would not be the fault of the carrier. Most insurance companies only compensate for burglary. There are also insurers that cover the theft in whole or in part, including it in the policy as an additional clause, for which they request the payment of an additional premium.
