HR 7353 United States House · 118th Congress

Ukraine War Risk Insurance Act

HR 7353, the Ukraine War Risk Insurance Act, expands eligibility for U.S. war risk insurance to commercial vessels transporting cargo to or from Ukraine for five years after enactment. It directly affects shipping companies owned by citizens of NATO countries, Ukraine, or designated countries (as determined by the State Department), allowing them to access existing insurance programs under Title 46, U.S. Code, for Ukraine-related trade. The bill creates the "Insurance for Ukraine Initiative" at the State Department to coordinate with insurers, boost confidence in Ukraine's economic recovery, and encourage international investment in Ukraine's trade. It requires annual reports to Congress on the Initiative's progress toward these goals.
