(1) If any loss of or physical damage to the goods is externally apparent and the consignee or the shipper fails to notify the carrier of said loss or physical damage on delivery of the goods, at the latest, then the operative assumption is that the goods were delivered in their entirety and in undamaged condition. The notice must describe the loss or physical damage in sufficiently clear terms.
(2) The assumption set out in subsection (1) applies also if the loss or physical damage was not externally apparent and no notice was filed within three days of delivery.
(3) The notice of damage is to be filed in text form. Timely dispatch of the notice will suffice in order to comply with the corresponding deadline.
(4) If notice of the loss or physical damage is made upon delivery, then it suffices for such notice to be given to the party delivering the goods.
