Question from Anna, What is the weight limitation of indemnity according to NSAB (Nordic Association) Jurisdiction?

Answer from AI:

The Nordic Association of Freight Forwarders (NSAB) has established a set of general conditions known as NSAB 2015, which includes provisions on the limitation of liability for freight forwarders.

General Limitation of Liability

According to NSAB 2015, the freight forwarder’s liability for loss, depreciation, damage or delay is limited to SDR (Special Drawing Rights) 8.33 per kilogram of gross weight of the goods lost or damaged. This limitation applies unless the parties have agreed otherwise in writing.

Special Limitations

There are also special limitations of liability in certain circumstances. For example, in the case of delay, the indemnity is limited to the amount of the freight, and in the case of other loss or damage not related to the goods themselves, the indemnity is limited to SDR 100,000 per order.

Exceptions to the Limitations

The limitations of liability do not apply if the loss, depreciation, damage or delay has been caused by the freight forwarder’s act or omission, done with the intent to cause such damage, or recklessly and with knowledge that such damage would probably result.

Please note: The above information is a general explanation of the NSAB 2015 conditions. The actual application of these conditions can be complex and may depend on the specific circumstances of each case. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with a legal professional for personalized advice.
