U.S. Postal Service Insurance Rates

The purchase of insurance is completely optional. You may elect to purchase insurance coverage at the rates detailed below. These rates are the U.S. Postal Service's published rates. However, please note that ShipitAPO® uses a 3rd-party insurance carrier that provides equal coverage as that provided by the USPS. You can change this amount at any time, even on a per-package basis, so that you always have the right amount of coverage on all your packages. Should you want to purchase insurance, just set your account insurance preferences to how much coverage you want. Based on your account settings, you will be charged the cost of insurance as we process your package at the following rates:

	Membership Type
Coverage	Basic (Cost)	Premium (Cost)
$0.01 - $50.00	$1.75	Built-in
$50.01 - $100.00	$2.25	Built-in
$100.01 - $200.00	$2.75	$2.75
$200.01 - $300.00	$4.70	$4.70
**Plus $1.00 for each $100 or fraction thereof over $300 in desired coverage, up to $5000 maximum coverage. NOTE: Claims must be submitted to ShipitAPO® within 85-days of the shipment date but no earlier than 45-days if claiming loss; 60-days for packages mailed Parcel Post. Email and fax submissions are acceptable to meet deadline dates but hard copies with original signatures are required to be submitted unless otherwise instructed during the claims process. All insurance claims over $150.00 must be notarized. Claim forms and instructions can be downloaded from our Members Area.
