how does fedex insurance work?

FedEx offers declared value coverage as part of their shipping services. This coverage is automatically included up to a certain amount, typically $100, and provides protection for lost or damaged shipments. If you need additional coverage, you can purchase additional insurance through FedEx for a fee. To file a claim, you will need to provide documentation of the value of the shipment and proof of damage or loss. FedEx will then review the claim and provide compensation based on the declared value and additional insurance coverage, if applicable. It’s important to carefully read and understand the terms and conditions of FedEx’s insurance coverage to ensure you have the appropriate protection for your shipments.
