Transport insurance horses
Transporting your horse always involves risks. An accident, unexpected event, or damage during loading, unloading, or transit can have significant financial consequences. With horse transport insurance, you protect your horse during transport, both domestically and internationally.
We help you put together an insurance policy that matches your transport needs and the value of your horse.
What is a transport insurance for horses?
A transport insurance for horses protects your horse against the financial consequences of damage or loss during a specific transport. The insurance comes into effect once the application has been approved and lasts until the transport is fully completed.
Because each transport is different, for example, in terms of destination, duration, means of transport, or the value of the horse, this insurance is fully customized. This way, you are insured with a solution that perfectly matches the transport you are planning.
What are the benefits?
Your horse is insured during the entire insured transport, from the start until safe arrival at the destination.
Each insurance policy is tailored to the specific transport, destination, and value of your horse.
Whether you transport your horse within Belgium or abroad, we will find a suitable insurance solution.
Who is this insurance for?
This insurance is suitable for anyone who wants to insure a horse safely during a specific transport, such as:
- Private horse owners
- Competition riders
- Professional riders
- Breeders
- Horse traders
- Riding schools
Whether it concerns transportation to a competition, veterinary clinic, stud farm, sale, or a new stable, we offer a solution tailored to your transport.
What is covered and what is not?
What is covered?
- Loss or damage occurring during the insured transport
- Accidents during loading, transit and unloading (where included in the policy)
- Domestic or international transport, subject to the agreed cover
What is not covered?
- Loss or damage occurring outside the insured transport period
- Pre-existing medical conditions or injuries
- Losses resulting from intentional acts or gross negligence
- Risks that are not covered under the policy
How much does this insurance cost?
Because no two transports are the same, the premium is always calculated to fit your needs.
In doing so, we take into account:
- The value of the horse
- The destination
- The duration of the transport
- The means of transportation
- The selected cover ages.
This way, you only pay for the coverage you need for your specific transport.
