What is the carrier's liability?

If a carrier is found responsible for the loss or damage, they will be held accountable in accordance with the standard terms and conditions. These are referring to local legislation and international conventions like CMR, CIM or Montreal Convention, depending on the mode of transport and agreements between the forwarder and the shipper. Based on the conventions and/or agreements a limitation of liability can be applied which could result in the customer only getting compensated partly. If the carrier is not found liable, he might even be exempted from the liability completely.
