The advantages of insuring your shipment with DHL Express

With our insurance coverage, you can have peace of mind that your shipment will be fully covered until it reaches its intended recipient.

All you have to do to insure your shipment is to opt for it in the ‘Protect Your Shipment’ box and indicate the value to be covered – this should be the same as the value of the shipment, which should be reflected on your invoice as well.

The price of insuring your shipment is JPY 2,500 or 1.20% of the insured value if higher. The insurance covers the actual value of your shipment in the unlikely event that it gets damaged or lost in our care.

At DHL we take great care of all shipments, be it parcel or document. Unfortunately, accidents or unforeseen circumstances still occur. At a flat rate of JPY 500, you can insure your documents and ship them with certainty. For Extended Liability, no declared or insured value is necessary.
