party to the contract or whether the action is founded in contract
or in tort.

by the actual carrier, for the act or omission of the actual
carrier and of his servant or agent acting within the scope of his
employment or agency.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding paragraph,
where a contract of carriage by sea provides explicitly that a
specified part of the carriage covered by the said contract is to
be performed by a named actual carrier other than the carrier, the

liable for the loss, damage or delay in delivery arising from an
occurrence which takes place while the goods are in the charge of
the actual carrier during such part of the carriage.
第六十条

Article 71A bill of lading is a
document which serves as an evidence of the contract of carriage of
goods by sea and the taking over or loading of the goods by the
carrier, and based on which the carrier undertakes to deliver the

shall, on demand of the shipper, issue to the shipper a bill of

a shipped bill of lading when the goods have been loaded on board.
The carrier may also note on the received-for-shipment bill of
