Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, generally a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.
