Basics
The law essentially regulates the legal relationships between shipowners (definition in § 1 BinSchG) and their creditors. In addition, the BinSchG determines the causes of liability and their regulation, in particular the special limitations of liability for shipowners, e.g. B. in connection with transport / transport damage during transport by inland waterway vessels within Germany. Insofar as liability issues in connection with the carriage of goods on inland waterway vessels come into question, the liability rules of §§ 407 ff. Of the German Commercial Code (HGB) apply . However, within Germany, the provisions of the BinSchG apply to damage in connection with the transport of people and their luggage.
