Trade fair and exhibition insurance

RPTU offers its researchers trade fair and exhibition insurance. The insurance is valid for exhibitions, trade fairs, presentations, etc. as well as for the necessary transportation.

For events within the Federal Republic of Germany, the premium of 1.5 ‰ (plus insurance tax) is considerably lower than the usual market prices. The minimum premium is 50 euros plus insurance tax. For events in France, Belgium and Luxembourg, the premium is 3.0 ‰ (plus insurance tax). An excess of only 256 euros has been agreed.

A special feature of the contract is that a forwarding agent commissioned for the transport does not have to take out additional transport (=SVS) insurance, so that the costs for the forwarding agent are reduced by the insurance amount.

The following information is required:

  • Name, location and period of the event
  • Insurance period (usually 1 day before and 1 day after the event for transportation and loading/unloading)
  • Type of transportation of the items (e.g. by private car, company car, freight forwarder ... ?)
  • Is someone always present at the exhibits during the opening hours of the event?
  • Is stand security available outside opening hours?

or

  • Are the devices in a locked room?

or

  • Is the exhibition room/hall locked?
The most important thing: the appliance list!

It contains all appliances/parts that can be taken along and insured. The value of the individual items must be stated. On request, you will receive a prepared Excel table in which you can enter your appliances, parts and values. Please label the devices as precisely as possible, i.e. device designation, type and possibly inventory/serial number. Small parts or inexpensive material can be indicated on the list with a flat rate. Please indicate if individual appliances are prototypes or self-constructed. The values stated refer to the replacement value.

Claims (e.g. theft, transport damage) will be settled directly with the insurance company via the respective group.

The insurance must be registered in good time before the event (approx. 2-3 weeks) with: RTIN, Mr. Dosch, telephone: 0631 205 3001, where you can also request the General Terms and Conditions of Insurance.
