Moving Insurance

When you are moving from your home country to France, you are entrusting the moving company with all or part of your possessions. While your moving company carries insurance for any damage they may cause to your personal effects and furniture, the limits of their liability tend to be extremely low compared to the true value of your property. When you consider how impossible it is to guarantee that all of your property will arrive in France in the same condition as when it left your home, you realize how extremely important it is that your property is adequately insured before you move.

Moving Insurance Guide


Whatever the means of transportation for your move, you should consider having your own specific Moving Insurance policy that covers your belongings in the event of breakage, theft, disappearance, fire or water damage. The policy should cover all of your personal effects, furniture and valuables that you are bringing with you to France as part of the move.

When applying for Moving Insurance, you should be sure to get full value protection which will pay for the repair or replacement of damaged property. Your moving company will probably try to sell you moving insurance as an option, which is convenient but far from economical. At Aon, we provide full value protection at very competitive rates, due to the purchasing power of the group policy.

Our Moving Insurance coverage offers the following benefits:
  • Very competitive prices - Since we negotiated our Moving Insurance as part of a group program, you will benefit from the purchasing power of the group.
  • It’s easy and convenient to apply - All that’s needed to join our group policy is a copy of your itemized inventory of whatever you plan to move.
  • Coverage you can count on - Our policy is underwritten through the Paris office of one of the most reliable US-based insurance companies. Issued in Paris, our policy offers the benefits of French Moving Insurance policies which provide broader coverage than policies underwritten in other countries.
  • We handle claims - This will save you the hassle of contacting the insurance company which would be all the more complicated if you had applied locally in your home country.
Whether you are moving to France or back to your home country, we'd appreciate the opportunity to make your move as stress-free as possible.
