Does cargo insurance cover the container

A policy insures only the goods in its own definition. A reusable container is a separate asset, and recovery from the carrier is capped per kilogram, so cover is asked about in writing and value is documented.

Does the quarantine tag go on the container or the goods?

Tag the container and the goods walk free once unloaded; tag the goods and the container counts as clean. The tag goes on whatever is in doubt, and two doubts need two tags.

The thirty days after a modification: an unrecorded vehicle comes off the road

A damaged gasket at goods-in: are the goods still accepted?

A torn gasket shows the container did not seal at some point; it does not show for how long. The goods are decided by the readings, which need two numbers and one calculation at goods-in.
