This outlines the customer’s responsibilities, including providing accurate cargo descriptions, proper packaging, labeling, and complete documentation. It also confirms that the customer warrants they are the rightful owner of the goods or an authorized agent.
This clause details the billing structure, including freight rates, surcharges, taxes, and duties. It specifies payment deadlines, interest on overdue accounts, and the company’s right to withhold or exercise a lien on goods if payment remains outstanding.
This is a critical section that restricts the company’s liability for loss, damage, or delay of goods. It often references international conventions (like the Montreal Convention for air or CMR for road) and sets a maximum monetary limit on compensation per kilogram or per consignment.
This section requires the customer to provide advance written notice if goods are hazardous, flammable, or restricted. It gives the company the right to reject, dispose of, or safely handle such items at the customer’s expense if they are not declared.
This protects the company from liability in the event of circumstances beyond its control—such as natural disasters, war, pandemics, labor strikes, or government-imposed restrictions—that prevent or delay the performance of services.
