If you declare a higher value for carriage and pay the additional charge, our maximum liability will be the lesser of your declared value for carriage or your actual damage. Please ensure you read the terms of insurance, as we do not provide all-risk insurance.

Where however we feel that crating your item is best for your shipment due to its sensitive or fragile nature, you agree to bear the cost of such crating – that the cost must be paid before such item is released.
You agree that if you send more than one package on a shipment using a single invoice number or HAWB number or airway bill number, the declared value for carriage of each package will be determined by dividing the total declared value for carriage by the number of packages in the shipment.
