Maersk expands Diamond cargo insurance package worldwide

Maersk will make its Cargo Insurance Diamond package available to customers worldwide from 21 September 2026.

The Cargo Insurance – Reefer – Diamond package will apply to shipments moving worldwide, excluding Saudi Arabia. Maersk has set the tariff at US$2,800.

Price Calculation Date rules

For non-SPOT bookings, Maersk will retrieve the rate according to the applicable Price Calculation Date.

For non-FMC shipments, the Price Calculation Date is the scheduled departure date of the first water leg at the time of booking confirmation.

For FMC shipments, the Price Calculation Date is the final container gate-in date.

For SPOT bookings, Maersk will retrieve the rate according to the booking confirmation date.

The payment location for the insurance charge will follow the freight payment location.

Other applicable surcharges may apply, including local and contingency charges. The new rate does not affect tariffs published or filed under local regulatory requirements.

For trades governed by the US Shipping Act or China Maritime Regulations, rates that differ from Maersk’s tariff will only bind the carrier when included in an applicable service contract or amendment filed with the relevant authority.
