THE PARTIES TO THE PRESENT PROTOCOL,
BEING PARTIES to the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR), done at Geneva on 19 May 1956,
HAVE AGREED as follows:

For the purpose of the present Protocol "Convention" means the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR).

Article 23 of the Convention is amended as follows:
(1) Paragraph 3 is replaced by the following text:

"3. Compensation shall not, however, exceed 8.33 units of account per kilogram of gross weight short."

(2) At the end of this article the following paragraphs 7, 8 and 9 are added:

"7. The unit of account mentioned in this Convention is the Special Drawing Right as defined by the International Monetary Fund. The amount mentioned in paragraph 3 of this article shall be converted into the national currency of the State of the Court seized of the case on the basis of the value of that currency on the date of the judgement or the date agreed upon by the Parties. The value of the national currency, in terms of the Special Drawing Right, of a State which is a member of the International Monetary Fund shall be calculated in accordance with the method of valuation applied by the International Monetary Fund in effect at the date in question for its operations and transactions. The value of the national currency, in terms of the Special Drawing Right, of a State which is not a member of the International Monetary Fund, shall be calculated in a manner determined by that State.

8. Nevertheless, a State which is not a member of the International Monetary Fund and whose law does not permit the application of the provisions of paragraph 7 of this article may, at the time of ratification of or accession to the Protocol to the CMR or at any time thereafter, declare that the limit of liability provided for in paragraph 3 of this article to be applied in its territory shall be 25 monetary units. The monetary unit referred to in this paragraph corresponds to 10/31 gram of gold of millesimal fineness nine hundred. The conversion of the amount specified in this paragraph into the national currency shall be made according to the law of the State concerned.
9. The calculation mentioned in the last sentence of paragraph 7 of this article and the conversion mentioned in paragraph 8 of this article shall be made in such a manner as to express in the national currency of the State as far as possible the same real value for the amount in paragraph 3 of this article as is expressed there in units of account. States shall communicate to the Secretary-General of the United Nations the manner of calculation pursuant to paragraph 7 of this article or the result of the conversion in paragraph 8 of this article as the case may be, when depositing an instrument referred to in article 3 of the Protocol to the CMR and whenever there is a change in either."

1. This Protocol shall be open for signature by States which are signatories to, or have acceded, to the Convention and are either members of the Economic Commission for Europe or have been admitted to that Commission in a consultative capacity under paragraph 8 of that Commission's terms of reference.
2. This Protocol shall remain open for accession by any of the States referred to in paragraph 1 of this article which are Parties to the Convention.
3. Such States as may participate in certain activities of the Economic Commission for Europe in accordance with paragraph 11 of that Commission's terms of reference which have acceded to the Convention may become Contracting Parties to this Protocol by acceding thereto after its entry into force.
4. This Protocol shall be open for signature at Geneva from 1 September 1978 to 31 August 1979 inclusive. Thereafter, it shall be open for accession.
5. This Protocol shall be subject to ratification after the State concerned has ratified or acceded to the Convention.
6. Ratification or accession shall be effected by the deposit of an instrument with the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
7. Any instrument of ratification or accession deposited after the entry into force of an amendment to the present Protocol with respect to all Contracting Parties or after the completion of all measures required for the entry into force of the amendment with respect to all Contracting Parties shall be deemed to apply to the Protocol as modified by the amendment.

1. This Protocol shall enter into force on the ninetieth day after five of the States referred to in article 3, paragraphs 1 and 2, of this Protocol have deposited their instruments of ratification or accession.
2. For any State ratifying or acceding to it after five States have deposited their instruments of ratification or accession, this Protocol shall enter into force on the ninetieth day after the said State has deposited its instrument of ratification or accession.

2. Denunciation shall take effect twelve months after the date of receipt by the Secretary-General of the notification of denunciation.
3. Any Contracting Party which ceases to be Party to the Convention shall on the same date cease to be Party to this Protocol.

If, after the entry into force of this Protocol, the number of Contracting Parties is reduced, as a result of denunciations, to less than five, this Protocol shall cease to be in force from the date on which the last of such denunciations takes effect. It shall also cease to be in force from the date on which the Convention ceases to be in force.

1. Any State may, at the time of depositing its instrument of ratification or accession or at any time thereafter, declare by a notification addressed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations that this Protocol shall extend to all or any of the territories for whose international relations it is responsible and in respect of which it has made a declaration in accordance with article 46 of the Convention. This Protocol shall extend to the territory or territories named in the notification as from the ninetieth day after its receipt by the Secretary-General or, if on that day the Protocol has not yet entered into force, as from the time of its entry into force.
2. Any State which has made a declaration under the preceding paragraph extending this Protocol to any territory for whose international relations it is responsible may denounce the Protocol separately in respect of that territory in accordance with the provisions of article 5 above.

POGODBENICE TEGA PROTOKOLA,
KI SO POGODBENICE Konvencije o pogodbi za mednarodni cestni prevoz blaga (CMR), sklenjene v Ženevi 19. maja 1956,
SO SE DOGOVORILE:

V tem protokolu pomeni "konvencija" Konvencijo o pogodbi za mednarodni cestni prevoz blaga (CMR).

23. člen konvencije se spremeni:
(1) tretji odstavek se nadomesti z besedilom:

"3. Odškodnina ne sme presegati 8,33 obračunske enote za kilogram kosmate teže primanjkljaja."

(2) Na koncu tega člena se dodajo sedmi, osmi in deveti odstavek:

"7. Obračunska enota iz te konvencije je posebna pravica črpanja, kakor jo je opredelil Mednarodni denarni sklad. Znesek, naveden v tretjem odstavku tega člena, se pretvori v nacionalno valuto države, v kateri je sodišče, ki mu je zadeva dodeljena, in sicer na podlagi vrednosti te valute na dan sodbe ali na dan, za katerega sta se sporazumeli pogodbenici. Vrednost nacionalne valute, izražena s posebno pravico črpanja države, ki je članica Mednarodnega denarnega sklada, se izračuna v skladu z metodo vrednotenja, ki jo je na ta datum za svoje lastne operacije in transakcije uporabljal Mednarodni denarni sklad. Vrednost valute, izražene s posebno pravico črpanja, države, ki ni članica Mednarodnega denarnega sklada, se izračuna tako, kot določi ta država."

"8. Ne glede na to pa lahko država, ki ni članica Mednarodnega denarnega sklada in katere zakonodaja ne dopušča uporabe določb sedmega odstavka tega člena, ob ratifikaciji ali pristopu k protokolu k CMR ali kadar koli pozneje izjavi, da je meja obveznosti, zagotovljena s tretjim odstavkom tega člena, ki se uporablja na njenem ozemlju, 25 denarnih enot. Denarna enota, na katero se nanaša odstavek, ustreza 10/31 grama zlata s čistostjo 900 tisočink. Znesek, določen v tem odstavku, se pretvori v nacionalno valuto v skladu z zakonodajo te države."

"9. Izračun iz zadnjega stavka sedmega odstavka tega člena in pretvorba iz osmega odstavka tega člena se opravita tako, da v valuti države čim bolj izražata enako realno vrednost zneska iz tretjega odstavka tega člena, kakor je tam izražena v obračunskih enotah. Države generalnemu sekretarju Združenih narodov sporočijo način izračuna na podlagi sedmega odstavka tega člena ali rezultat pretvorbe iz osmega odstavka tega člena, ko deponirajo listino iz 3. člena protokola k CMR in ob vsaki spremembi pri enem ali drugem."
