The Insurance has been provided only to those goods which are mentioned in the insurance policy, so it is important to read the insurance policy carefully. Risks under marine policy are categorised into three parts such as basic risks, extraneous risks, and all risks. Many acts have been introduced by the government to govern marine insurance business.

There are several principles of Marine Insurance which one must follow in order to acquire the Marine Insurance.
