- a)
the particulars or information referred to in articles 6, paragraph 2, or 7, paragraph 1, are missing, inaccurate or incomplete;
- b)
the dangerous or polluting goods are not marked or labelled in accordance with the applicable international or national regulations or, if no such regulations exist, in accordance with rules and practices generally recognized in inland navigation;
- c)
the necessary accompanying documents are missing, inaccurate or incomplete.
The carrier may not avail himself of the liability of the shipper if it is proven that the fault is attributable to the carrier himself, his servants or agents. The same applies to the actual carrier.
