Abstract

Article 1956 of the New Civil Code provides: “The transport contract is proved by shipping documents such as consignment notes, receipt of luggage, roadmap, bill of lading, travelticket or IDor other similar documents, from case to case”. The new Civil Code does not provide details regarding the form the transport contract, which means that the documents referred to in the legal standard concern the proof and not the validity of the contract. According to Article 1957 of the Civil Code, the transport may be carried out by one or more carriers, in the latter case it can often be successively combined. Successive transport is performed by two or more successive carriers using the same means of transport. Combined transport is that for which the same carrier or successive carriers use the same means of transport, reason for which it is also known as multimodal transport. Carriers that succeed one another hand over their goods and luggage until reaching the destination, without the intervention of the passenger or consignor [Article 1957, paragraph (3) of the new Civil Code].
