International Multimodal Transportation Issues Relative to Application of the Rotterdam Rules

The Rotterdam Rules support multimodal carriage. Interalia, Rotterdam Rule Art.26 and Art.82 have been supporting many different International Transportation Rules, in other words, multimodal carriage. A contract for the multimodal carriage of goods contains an undertaking by a multimodal transport operator to perform carriage of goods by at least two different modes of transport from the place where the goods are taken in charge to a place designated for delivery. This study examined the issues between international transportation rules and Art.26 and Art.82 of the Rotterdam Rules. The multimodal regime in the Rotterdam Rules has consistently been described as a limited network system. Rotterdam Rule Art.26 sets out to overrule any other applicable legal regime as much as possible without actually entering into conflict with each international rule. Rotterdam Rule Art. 82 operates when the other regime claims applicability to the same subject matter.
