Abstract EN

The maritime transport contract is based mainly between the ''shipper and the carrier'', but the practical reality of this contract requires the intervention of the third person to complete it, which is the ''receiver'', the latest here and although he is considered a third party.

he participates in the maritime transport contract.

as a result, relations arise between him, the shipper and the carrier.

it's expressed by the tripartite relations.

on the other hand when we refer to the general rules of contracts, we find that the principle of the contract's effect relativity is the wall that stands as an obstacle to anyone who tries to give an explanation or justification for the issue of tripartite relations, but according to this principle, the receiver is not bound by the effects of the maritime transport contract and does not apply to it.

however, when we delve into the depths of the maritime relationship resulting from this contract, we find the exact opposite so that the receiver appears as a third party in the contract of the maritime carriage of goods has duties and obligations, and this is what calls us to research the questions raised by the legal status of the receiver.
