All tasks are performed in accordance with the Nordic Freight Forwarders' Association's General Regulations (NSAB 2000). The provisions limit our liability for loss, deterioration or damage to goods to SDR 8.33 per. kg. and for delay up to the shipping amount, maximum SDR 50,000 for each order.
During storage, the freight forwarder's total liability for damage in one and the same incident is limited to SDR 500,000 (§ 27). Particular attention is drawn to the fact that claims against the freight forwarder become statute-barred after 1 year (§ 30), and that the lien (§ 14) includes both current and previous claims.
Requirements for freight, etc. must be remunerated regardless of the terms of delivery of the trade agreement (§ 10). Any order is executed with reservations to strikes, lockouts or other force majeure.
Fines
As a starting point, we do not replace fines for delays. This with reference to the CMR Act (§32) and NSAB (§19) where we are only liable for damages to the extent "there is some damage as a result of the delay, but not in addition to the freight amount."
We always strive to comply with the agreed deadlines and will as soon as possible inform about a possible. delay.
