The carrier delivering the cargo to the destination is obliged to carry out its activities within the time period established by the contract. The delivery time of goods depends on the type of transport, the route chosen by the carrier, the need to cross the state border and additional loading and unloading operations.
The cargo is considered delivered at the time specified in the contract if it is submitted for unloading at the end point of the route before its expiration. If the transport is subject to customs inspection, the carrier is not responsible for its delay at customs. If this happens, the delivery time is extended by the delay time.
