Notice of readiness for loading

(1) As soon as the ship berthed at the loading wharf is ready for the goods to be loaded and stowed on board, the carrier is to notify the shipper of readiness for loading. Insofar as the shipper has yet to designate the loading wharf, the carrier may already give notice of readiness for loading once the ship has reached the port of loading.

(2) The notice of readiness for loading must be given during the office hours customarily kept at the loading wharf. If notice of readiness for loading is given outside of the office hours customary for the location of the loading wharf, then said notice will be deemed to have been received at the start of the next office hour customary for the location.
