The liability system for road carriers is the same in international carriage (CMR Convention, arts. 17-29) as in national carriage in Spain (Law 15\/2009 from 9<sup>th<\/sup> of November &#8211; LCT, arts. 46-63).\u00a0<b><a href=\"https:\/\/aiyon.es\/en\/elements-to-be-analyzed-in-cargo-theft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The carrier is not only accountable for damages or late delivery of the entrusted cargo but also for losses caused by a robbery or any other reason.<\/a><\/b><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>By reporting a robbery to the Shipper and to the Contracting Carrier, in case there is a subcontracting agreement in the process of the carriage, a number of protocols come into play and the performance and diligence displayed by the effective carrier, the victim of the robbery, is always a crucial factor.<\/p>\n<p>Although effective carriers\u2019 first impression might be that a robbery is something unpredictable and unavoidable, considering that their insurance policy covers this type of incidents, the truth is that the insight shared by cargo and\/or transport insurance companies is different.

Let us not forget, that this limit would no longer apply if the carrier had caused the cargo robbery due to his grossly negligent or willful misconduct (CMR art. 29 \u2013 LCT art.62).<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in this topic or need more information, <a href=\"https:\/\/aiyon.es\/en\/offices-and-contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>do not hesitate to contact us<\/b><\/a>.
