The Kurultai passed in two readings a law ratifying the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road. The measure is intended to develop international cooperation in road transport of commercial goods.
The convention was adopted in Geneva on May 19, 1956. It establishes common rules for concluding, performing and terminating international road freight contracts, and defines a carrier’s liability for failing to perform or improperly performing the contract.
The convention currently has 58 participating countries, including all members of the Commonwealth of Independent States.
