Should it be when the goods have arrived at their destination and the consignee has requested delivery thereof, or should it be when the goods are actually delivered at their destination?

In a limited number of countries, export goods must be handed over to certain authorities before the carrier may take receipt of them, or import goods must be handed over to certain authorities before the consignee may take delivery of them.

(b) The carrier is not allowed under applicable law or regulations to deliver the goods to the consignee,

An electronic communication is presumed to be capable of being retrieved by the addressee when it reaches the addressee's electronic address.

Pursuant to article 13 (previously 10) the carrier is obliged to deliver the goods to the consignee.

Some jurisdictions require some act of actual receipt by the consignee others regard the placing of the goods at the free disposal of the consignee as delivery.

The time of receipt of an electronic communication at another electronic address of the addressee is the time when it becomes capable of being retrieved by the addressee at that address and the addressee becomes aware that the electronic communication has been sent to that address.

The duty of the carrier to deliver the goods to the consignee is dealt with in article 13 (previously 10).

As a prerequisite for delivery, the consignee must produce proper identification.

(c) replace the consignee with another person, including the controlling party itself

The carrier may refuse delivery if the consignee does not produce proper identification.

It was suggested that the third party consignee is actually a part of the transaction due to the contract of sale, pursuant to which the consignee is free to negotiate conditions favourable to it, and that to argue that such a party is in need of protection is somewhat artificial.

The carrier must deliver the goods at the time and location mentioned in article 11(4) (previously 7 (3)) to the consignee.

(a) It directly or indirectly excludes, limits, or increases the obligations under Chapter 7 of the shipper, consignor, consignee, controlling party, holder, or person referred to in Article 31 or

(b) It directly or indirectly excludes, limits, or increases the liability of the shipper, consignor, consignee, controlling party, holder, or person referred to in Article 31 for breach of any of their obligations under Chapter 7.

And article 1 (k) (previously 1(i)) defines the consignee as the person entitled to take delivery of the goods.

This applies even if a consignee takes samples of the goods and subsequently decides to reject them under the contract of sale.

As the complainant was never at home at the time of delivery, these requests were delivered to the complainant's wife.

The carrier must deliver the goods at the time and location mentioned in article 11(4) (previously 7 (3)) to the consignee upon the consignee's production of proper identification.

(a) If the name and address of the consignee is not referred to in the contract particulars the controlling party must advise the carrier thereof, prior to or upon the arrival of the goods at the place of destination

In the discussion within the Working Group the question has arisen whether the duty of the consignee should be unconditional.

Also, the level of the consignee's activity that would trigger its duty to accept delivery has been a point of discussion.

If the carrier is required to hand over the goods at the place of delivery to an authority or other third party to which, pursuant to applicable law or regulation, the goods must be handed over and from which the consignee may collect them, such handing over is a delivery of the goods by the carrier under paragraph 4.

Such placing at the consignee's disposal may be done actually or through documents, such as a delivery order.

This article provides that the carrier should make an effort to avoid a situation that on the part of the consignee no adequate reaction is forthcoming.

Its focus is on the main problem, namely that the goods arrive at their place of destination without someone there to receive them or the consignee being unwilling to take delivery of the goods.

In addition, the Commission handed to me a sealed file containing the evidentiary material it had collected, also to be delivered to a competent prosecutor.

Subject to article 12, the responsibility of the carrier for the goods under this Convention covers the period from the time when the carrier or a performing party has received the goods for carriage until the time when the goods are delivered to the consignee.

It was also suggested that the discussion in this regard could be somewhat more nuanced, since depending on what type of transport document was issued, a consignee could in some jurisdictions actually be bound by the contract of carriage.

In response to a question, it was clarified that the phrase consigned to the order of the shipper or to the order of the consignee in subparagraph (i) was intended to include the situation where goods were consigned to a named party.

When the goods have arrived at their destination, the consignee that exercises any of its rights under the contract of carriage must accept delivery of the goods at the time and location referred to in article 11(4) (previously 7(3)).
