The right of Carrier in time of receiving goods for mentioning the qualificationof goods in Bill of Lading, is recognized as reservation right. On the other hand, a similar right isconsidered at the end of carriage in favor of consignee In destination, consignee shall have right todeclare the non-conformity of goods with description of Bill of Lading at delivery or to maintain hisright by sending the notice according to regulation after delivery and inspection. Although the rightof consignee can not be mentione in Bill of Lading like the right of carrier, but it could not be entitledother than «Reservation Right for Consignee» .There are different discussions over basic of the rightof consignee against that for carriers’ due to relativity of contract .In some international regulations,right of action for consignee shall be eliminated if notice is not brought timely, except for the case ofcarrier’s malice. It will be necessary to consider some excuses for lack of timely notice circumstancebecause of its gross compensation.
