freight forwarder cargo insurance: below are the numbers that actually matter in Saudi practice — rates, transit times, paperwork — with Modjo ready to run it end to end.
The rules of the lane: Cargo insurance for Saudi shipments costs roughly 0.2–0.5% of insured value (CIF + 10%). Carrier liability caps at a few dollars per kilo, which is why ICC (A) all-risks cover is the default for commercial cargo — it pays on loss, not on proving carrier fault, and absorbs general-average claims.
Under CIF terms the seller's cover is the legal minimum only; most buyers add their own ICC (A) policy.
