Abstract

The Convention on the Contract of Carriage in International Road Freight Transport regulates the rules in the international road transport of goods and thus also the promotion and development of international trade. The CMR Convention is of great importance for carriers, since it simplifies their work by uniformly modifying the accompanying documentation and establishing the liability of the carrier. Part of the CMR Convention is a consignment note, which is the most important document in transport. Neutralization of the consignment note has become a relatively common practice. Neutralization of the consignment note is not as contrary to legal standards as it may cause undesirable consequences for carriers. The purpose of this paper is to determine whether the neutralization of a transport document may cause problems for carriers in respect of liability insurance.
