Abstract

Unlike other international documents with regards to international sale of goods, impediments providing an exemption from liability to the promisor are regulated broadly in Art. 79 of the CISG in order to ensure uniformity, which is the main objective of the Convention. Within this framework, this paper first deals with the sphere of application of Art. 79 CISG followed by the prerequisites for exemption of liability under Art. 79. Evaluating the impediment in this context, it is discussed whether cases of hardship would benefit from the protection provided by the Art. 79 along with cases of force majeure. Subsequently, liability for third persons, temporary impediments, and consequences of exemption are analyzed.
