Protection against unplanned costs, and observance of the law

If you are in the goods transport business, there is the possibility that, despite the attention of a good host, you might damage the goods which you accepted for transport. The fact that the goods and items are covered by insurance does not exempt the carrier and other persons responsible for the damage from their liability to indemnify the caused damage. DDOR Novi Sad enables you to protect yourself against unplanned costs in case of the occurrence of damage, as well as to comply with the obligations defined by legal regulations.

DDOR Novi Sad will pay for the damage which was caused to goods (items) during transport, for which you or the persons conducting transport at your order, are responsible. This insurance provides security for your professional carrier activity, as well as a fair treatment of your service users.

Special options for every form of transport

Depending on the type of vehicle, and the distances and regulations based on which the professional activity of the carrier is regulated, there are several types of insurance, namely:

• liability insurance of road carriers in domestic transport,
• liability insurance of road carriers in international transport (CMR),
• insurance of shippers in inland navigation in domestic transport,
• insurance of shippers in inland navigation in international transport.

My benefits
