Abstract

The issue of passing of risk remains one from the main aspects in international sales law. The buyer usually intends to receive the purchased item promptly; the seller on the other hand intends to deliver goods as soon as possible, because it determines how quickly he receives payment for goods sold and releases himself from other obligations towards seller. The parties may agree for any mean of transport, which can be done by any from the parties or by the third party. The main purpose of this article is an attempt to highlight interpretational differences between terms which were used by the framers of CISG and to explain that, under certain circumstances these differences may influence the transfer of risk and situation of both parties to the contract of sale.
