When in contracts involving carriage if place isn’t specified then at which point does seller discharge their obligations?
Sir,
Does the responsibility ceases at EXW i.e when made available for loading into first carriage
OR
When goods are loaded..i.e responsibility ceases when the first carriage movesHi Sourav,
If in a contract involving carriage a pace is not specified, then the seller discharges their obligations by handing over the goods to the first carrier.
I hope that clarifies the position.
Kind regards,
Vijay
And what if carriage is not involved?
Are the transfer of risk same for both
1. Contracts involving carriage (unspecified place)
2. Contracts not involving carriageHi Sourav,
If carriage is not involved Article 31 essentially says that the seller discharges their obligation if they place the goods at the buyer’s disposal at the place where the seller had their business at the time the contract was concluded.
I hope that clarifies the position.
Kind regards,
Vijay
