hague visby
which rule will be applied in case of a damage of cargo during a multimodal transport depends at which stage of the damaged has occurred. if it can not be determined, the generally hague visby rule is applied.

quote from mr. Vlad Cioarec
this is a quote from mr. Vlad Cioarec
- Multimodal Transport Bills of Lading are issued subject to the network liability system whereby the existing mandatory rules governing unimodal carriage will apply when the loss or damage to the goods occurs on that particular mode. For example, if the container is lost overboard, the carrier's liability will be determined in accordance with the Hague/ Hague Visby Rules, while if the container is lost in a road accident, the liability will be determined in accordance with the CMR Convention. Otherwise said, if the container with the goods is lost or damaged during the sea carriage liabilities under the Multimodal Transport Document are the same as under a Bill of Lading, while if that occurs during road carriage liabilities are the same as under a CMR Consignment Note.
