Abstract
Croatia has ratified the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims 1976 (1976 Convention) and has been considered a Contracting State. The Croatian Parliament promulgated the Maritime Code on 8 December 2004 and it became effective from 29 December 2004. Part 6 of the Croatian Maritime Code (MC) devotes section 1 to substantive issues concerning the limitation of the shipowner’s liability and section 2 to limitation proceedings. Croatia is a contracting State to the Convention relating to the Carriage of Passengers and their Luggage by Sea, and to its 1990 Protocol, representing universally accepted principles of Maritime Law. As Croatia is a successor state after the dissolution of the former Yugoslavia, the Bill of Lading Convention 1924 is observed with all compulsory standards incorporated in the MC 2004 as implemented by the Hague Rules in respect of liability for loss or damage to the cargo.
