XCover Insurance: Coverage & Country Restrictions

Coverage through XCover depends on where a shipment starts and where it's headed. Here's what's currently supported, and which destinations aren't eligible. For how to add insurance to a package, see Adding insurance to a package in Shippo. For cost and item eligibility, see Adding, managing, and claiming XCover insurance.


Coverage by origin

For the most up-to-date coverage information, check XCover's terms and conditions.

  Note: Untrackable service levels aren't eligible for insurance coverage, since there's no tracking or delivery confirmation.

 

As of October 4, 2023, coverage is only available for shipments originating in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands. We're working on adding more countries soon.
