集装箱保险条款诠释
集装箱保险的格式表现了集装箱的混和性质。有些人认为它是被装上船运送的货物,其他人则认为它是用于运载货物的船舶的延伸,此种承保集装箱的保险含有摘选自承保货物和船舶的标准条款中的要素。集装箱经营人可以是船东,贷运代理(Freight 、陆地或空中将件货自一地运送至另一地点的公司。别称为Shipping and Forwarding Agents或Forwarding ),或仅是为他人使用的travelling boxes的租箱人,但无论其经营的性质如何,他将会要求按相同的一般条件,对他的所有的集装箱投保,无论其位于何处,也无论其价值如何。因此,在风险开始时,向保险人显示详细的信息相当重要,这些信息将填写进保险单格式末端的附表(或附贴于保险单),且需要清楚地识别保险单承保的每个集装箱。
有两种协会格式可供选用:一种承保综合条件(综合险full condition),另一种仅承保全损、共同海损、救助、救助费用和施救费用。
