Abstract
In this paper, the author analyses the liability of the charterer (shipper) towards the carrier in the carriage of goods by sea. He compares the Croatian legislative solutions (the Maritime Code 2004) with international conventions (the Hague Rules 1924, the Hamburg Rules 1978 and the Rotterdam Rules 2009). The author considers that the charterer (shipper) is presumed not to be liable as a basic principle, but would in some cases be responsible for damage on the basis of proven fault or strict liability.
