Is written notice needed for a sea-cargo delivery-delay claim?
Where the UAE Maritime Law 43/2023 applies, Article 185 requires written notice of delay to the carrier within 60 days of delivery for delay compensation. Preserve the agreed delivery terms, actual delivery and proof of sending the notice. That notice period is distinct from the time for bringing a court claim; do not transfer it to air cargo, road carriage or a seller-only delivery dispute. Compare the promised delivery terms with tracking, customs and handover records. Identify whether the delay arose with the seller, carrier, clearance or recipient, and document resulting loss. An estimated arrival and a binding delivery commitment should not be treated as the same promise.
