Does UPS offer any insurance options for international shipments?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, UPS does offer insurance options for international shipments. This insurance is commonly referred to as declared value coverage. When shipping internationally, customers can declare a value for the shipment, which allows for protection against loss or damage during transit. The declared value can be up to a certain limit based on the destination country and the specific service being used. It is important for customers to understand that this declared value coverage is not the same as traditional insurance and may have different limitations and requirements. Additionally, UPS encourages shippers to review their packaging and labeling to ensure that the declared value accurately reflects the contents being shipped. For detailed information on the specific limits, costs, and conditions associated with declared value coverage for international shipments, customers are advised to visit the UPS website, where the most current information and relevant details can be found.
