Once the preparations necessary for discharging goods from a ship have been completed, the master must notify the consignee of this without delay.
運送品の陸揚げのために必要な準備を完了したときは、船長は、遅滞なく、荷受人に対してその旨の通知を発しなければならない。
If a voyage charter contract prescribes a discharge period but does not prescribe the time of its commencement, the discharge period is counted from the time at which the consignee is notified as referred to in the preceding paragraph. In this case, the discharge period does not include any period during which the discharge of goods is impeded due to force majeure.
