Termination of Transit Clause (Terrorism) JC 2009/056

This is a paramount clause and shall override anything contained in this insurance inconsistent therewith. The risk of terrorism is covered under a marine cargo insurance but only when the goods are in the ordinary course of transit i.e., outside the control of the Assured and as per respective transit clause in the relevant contract of insurance. If manuscript wordings are used, coverage for terrorism would cease when the first of the eventualities listed in clause shall occur. If, in a multi-transit policy coverage is extended for a further transit after storage, cover for terrorism would re-attach once the extended transit begins but during the storage period, no cover against terrorism would be available.
