United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980)
Zivilrecht
Int. Privat- & Wirtschaftsrecht
- Determining the exact moment when the risk of loss or damage to the goods passes from the seller to the buyer is of great importance in contracts for the international sale of goods. Parties may regulate the issue in their contract either by an express provision or by the use of a trade term such as, for example, an INCOTERM. The effect of the choice of such a term would be to amend the corresponding provisions of the CISG accordingly. However, for the frequent case where the contract does not contain such a provision, the Convention sets forth a complete set of rules.
- The two special situations contemplated by the Convention are when the contract of sale involves carriage of the goods and when the goods are sold while in transit. In all other cases the risk passes to the buyer when he takes over the goods or from the time when the goods are placed at his disposal and he commits a breach of contract by failing to take delivery, whichever comes first. In the frequent case when the contract relates to goods that are not then identified, they must be identified to the contract before they can be considered to be placed at the disposal of the buyer and the risk of their loss can be considered to have passed to him.
