About Transport Insurance
Insure your goods for Damage & Loss
We automatically add an insurance of min. € 500,00 for each package.
Higher values can also be insured on demand per click in your account.
Within our warehouse your goods are insured up to 200.000,00 EUR.
A transport insurance can be selected when shipping the parcels. We use the transport insurance of our carrier partners, see below.
myGermany cannot be made liable for Drop Shipments as we do not open/check/pack such shipments.
Please mind that the transport insurance cannot be higher than your declared customs value in the shipping papers!
Insurance covers loss or damage to the items in your shipment. Claims can be made for declared items value and carrier partner shipping rates. Import duties or taxes cannot be claimed. Transportation costs are insured to a certain extend only in the sense that the shipment rates of our carrier partners are covered, but myGermany services based on individual cases only. Liability for additional services and material, which are added on top of partners shipping rates, is to be evaluated for each individual case.

How to fill Claims?
Please note that you need to prove the damages when receiving your package. So please check and take pictures along with the driver in case of a damage. We need to report to the carriers the damaged outer and inner packages. All claims will initially be evaluated by our carrier partners, then by myGermany; and are based on the declared value of goods which is done by you. In case of a claim, contact us at claim@mygermany.com and we will send you a form to be filled.
