1. You, the claimant, should follow the instructions under the "Important Notice" section of the Certificate of Marine Cargo Insurance. Failure to follow instructions may result in delay to claims settlement or the possibility of the claim being declined.

2. Claims are handled on behalf of the Underwriters by the claims agent and their appropriate office (as stated upon your certificate of marine cargo insurance) should be notified immediately of any claim.

3. To enable claims to be dealt with promptly, the Assured or their Agents are advised to submit all available supporting documents without delay to the claims agent named on the certificate or the surveyor if appointed. The surveyor is an independent person instructed to ascertain nature, cause and extent of loss and has no authority to make any promise of payment for or on behalf of Underwriters.

4. You are reminded of your obligation to give immediate notice to carriers in the event of loss or damage and to confirm that in writing as soon as possible.

5. Sight of the following documents will be requested, where appropriate, by the claims agent named on the certificate:

• Original Certificate of Marine Cargo Insurance
• Commercial Invoice
• Packing List
• Bill of Lading / Air Waybill / Consignment Note (both sides)
• Signed delivery receipt
• Copies of letter(s) notifying carriers of the claim and holding them responsible
• Carrier's replies if available

7. Please keep full written records of all correspondence or conversations in relation to the claim.

Full Land Rover Warranty is activated by Capurro Diplomatic the moment our in-country franchised representative carries out the cost-free final Health-Check and Handover to you. The Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) is conducted in our workshop in Gibraltar and is an essential procedure in obtaining warranty cover for your vehicle(s). In the event that you specifically do not require a formal Handover and final vehicle Health-Check in-country, Warranty will be activated the moment the vehicle departs Gibraltar for onwards delivery.

For shipments outside of Europe, when the vehicle arrives at its final destination, we will arrange contact with the pre-nominated Land Rover Retailer to arrange the final vehicle Health-Check and Handover. Our Land Rover partner at destination would have already received a notification of the vehicle sale from us, who would have informed them of their duties and responsibilities.

For deliveries within the European Union and where we have been able to Customs-clear the vehicle on your behalf using your Diplomatic accreditation, the vehicle will be delivered to the nearest Land Rover Retailer who will contact you to arrange registration, a final Health-Check and formal Handover. Where it has not been possible to Customs-clear the vehicle on your behalf, we recommend you nominate a convenient Land Rover Retailer for us to pre-advise and arrange for them to carry out the final Health-Check and formal Handover.

Many countries will have several dealerships. Should you prefer to have your vehicle Health-Check & formal Handover carried out by a specific Land Rover Retailer, please pre-advise our sales department so that arrangements can be made accordingly.

Typically, we are unable to supply a vehicle into a country where this is no Land Rover representative to support it. This said and subject to individual considerations, we may have agreements with neighbouring countries to manage your routine servicing requirements and warranty claims. Please check with your sales executive at point of enquiry.

Always go to the same Land Rover Approved Service Centre. We recommend you continue to visit your authorised repairer to guarantee official parts are used, and the instalment service is undertaken by a manufacturer-trained individual. This will ensure the optimal performance of your vehicle.

As your vehicle will be built to in-country specification, your in-territory Land Rover partner will provide you with the relevant information at the handover. This will include your Service Intervals which differs by model, engine and regional specification. For further guidance, please refer to your Online Service History account using your vehicle’s identification number (VIN) as your code to enter.
