What is UPS Declared Value?
UPS Declared Value is liability coverage for your packages that are worth up to $100. If you don’t add any additional declared value, UPS’s max liability coverage is $100. You have the option to purchase more declared value for your UPS shipments by clicking on your Order Number > Check Add Additonal Insurance > Select UPS Declared Value > Type in the amount of Declared Value you’d like to purchase.
UPS from ShippingEasy shipments aren’t eligible for additional UPS Declared Value over the included $100. But, you can add additional insurance to these shipments with Shipsurance.
