All the practicalities

1.1.    SAMSØLINJEN is operated and owned by Molslinjen A/S, Færgevej 7A, DK-8000 Aarhus C, CVR no. 17881248

1.2.    Any contract of carriage with SAMSØLINJEN is thus concluded with Molslinjen A/S as the other party.

1.3.    When purchasing a ticket from the carrier, these conditions apply to passengers, cars, lorries, baggage and cargo on the carrier's ferries and on ferries chartered by the carrier regardless of whether or not documents have been issued for the agreement.

1.4.    The transport is subject to the general rules of Danish law concerning carriage of passengers by sea, including parts 15 and 15a of the Danish Merchant Shipping Act (søloven) as well as Regulation No 1177/2010 of 23 April 2010 on the rights of passengers when travelling by sea and Regulation No 392/2009 of 23 April 2009 on the liability of carriers of passengers by sea in the event of accidents (the Athens Convention).

1.5.    The carrier limits its liability for loss and defects as well as personal injury, damage to property or cargo in accordance with the rules in Part 15 of the Merchant Shipping Act and Regulation no. 392/2009 of 23 April 2009 on the liability of carriers of passengers by sea in the event of accidents (the Athens Convention) (see section 5 regarding goods and section 9 regarding compensation for personal injury and damage to luggage in these Conditions of Carriage).

1.7.    The use of open flames indoors and on the vehicle deck is prohibited. Smoking is not permitted on board – neither on the passenger deck, the hanging deck nor the vehicle deck.

1.8.    Staying on the vehicle deck during the crossing is not allowed.

1.9.    The carrier may exclude persons from transport – regardless of whether they have a valid ticket – if they pose a safety risk, are a nuisance to other passengers or the carrier's staff or otherwise do not follow the instructions given in notices or other similar information about using the ferry.

3.5.    Disability assistance must be booked in the period Monday to Friday between 8.00 am and 9.00 pm, at least 48 hours before departure. If this deadline is not met, it cannot be guaranteed that disability assistance can be provided to enable the person to board, disembark and travel on the ferry although the carrier will take all reasonable measures to ensure carriage.

4.1.    Dogs are not permitted in the restaurant and bistro

4.2.    Dogs must be kept on a short lead. Other animals must be carried in a cage or pet carrier and must not be a nuisance to other passengers. Leaving dogs and other animals in the vehicle during the crossing is allowed (for animal transports, see also section 5.3).

4.4.    The carrier assumes no responsibility for the carriage of live animals.

5.1.    General goods carriage

5.1.1.    All lorries/vans with a total weight of more than 3,500 kg or a length of more than 6 m are designated as lorries.

5.1.2.    Driving on and off the ferry is done in co-operation with the staff, and the driver must exercise due caution.

5.1.3.    The vehicle must be equipped with lashing brackets to ensure attachment to the ferry. The goods on the vehicle must be adequately lashed and secured to withstand the impacts that may occur during sea transport. The haulier/driver is responsible for ensuring that the load is securely lashed and secured on their own vehicle.

5.1.4.    The carrier is not obliged to inspect trailers, containers or other transport devices with regard to the packing, stowage, lashing etc. of the goods. If, despite this, the carrier finds that the goods are not packed properly, the carrier may refuse to carry the goods.

5.1.5.    The carrier will not offer compensation for damage to goods or vehicles when the damage is due to defective lashing, stowage or other conditions that are the responsibility of the haulier and which the carrier has no special obligation to ensure.

5.1.6.    The chief officer has the final say on securing/lashing cargo and whether the cargo should be refused.

5.1.7.    Under current case law, the carrier accepts no liability for any damage to lorries and goods left in marshalling and port areas.

5.1.8.    For the carriage of goods, the liability of the carrier is primarily limited in accordance with the rules adopted by the North Sea Operator's Claims Conference ("NSOCC") in the North Sea Standard Conditions of Carriage, including the Green Card, secondarily in accordance with the Merchant Shipping Act.

5.1.9.    All services performed by the carrier or by a subcontractor appointed by the carrier as stevedores are subject to the General Provisions of the Nordic Freight Forwarders Association ("SAB 2015").

5.1.10.    Damage to goods or cargo must be reported immediately upon receipt at the port of arrival before the goods or cargo leave the area. If this is not complied with, the right of complaint will no longer apply.

5.1.11.    For the carriage of commercial freight and express parcels, consignments must be handed over at the time of the ferry's departure and collected upon the ferry's arrival.
 The customer shall be responsible for arranging and ensuring the loading of the consignments onto the ferry and their unloading from the ferry upon arrival.

5.2.    Placing of goods

5.2.1.    Goods left on the marshalling areas of one of the carrier's ferry terminals are at the customer's own expense and risk.

5.2.2.    If the customer does not collect the goods immediately after the carrier or a subcontractor appointed by the carrier has brought them ashore, the goods shall be stored at the customer's own expense and risk, see paragraph (2) of section 274(3) of the Merchant Shipping Act, as the goods may be stored in areas that are not necessarily monitored or secured. We therefore recommend that the customer secures the goods in the best possible way.

5.3.    Carriage of live animals

5.3.1.    When transporting live animals, the driver must state this no later than when boarding the ferry (see also section 9 regarding compensation for personal injury and damage to luggage).

5.4.3.    When carrying motor vehicles with dangerous goods, the necessary documents must be present before carriage. Labelling and packaging must comply with applicable regulations. The carrier reserves the right to verify that the cargo corresponds to the notification and has the right to refuse or postpone the carriage of dangerous goods.

5.4.4.    Private individuals/Vehicles
The Danish Maritime Authority (Søfartsstyrelsen) has issued guidance on the transport of dangerous goods in private vehicles carried on board ferries when packed accordingly and intended for personal use only. Measures must be taken to assess the risk and ensure safe transport under normal conditions. Items listed in the link here are classified as dangerous goods by the IMDG code, and if they are transported by individuals, either by private vehicles such as cars/caravans/trailers/motorhomes or by passengers on foot, the maximum quantities and the precautions must be observed. That does not include commercial vehicles, ambulances or vehicles operated by contractors/employees.

5.4.5.    Commercial vehicles
The consignor of goods is obliged to inform the carrier in writing of the presence of dangerous goods no later than 12 hours before departure and to ensure that all required documents have been correctly completed and handed in.

5.5.    Check weighing

5.5.1.    The carrier is entitled to carry out check weighing of trailers to verify the weight of the trailer stated at the time of booking.

PROCEDURE

Written notification

In case of damage to hand baggage or other luggage, the passenger must give timely written notice to the haulier. Failure to do so will result in the passenger losing their right to compensation.

Deadlines for exercising passenger rights

In general, any insurance case before a court must be initiated within a period of 2 years. The start date of this period may vary depending on the nature of the loss.

Exclusions regarding liability for damages

The haulier's liability may be reduced if the haulier proves that the death or personal injury of a passenger or damage to the passenger's luggage was due to or caused by the passenger's fault or negligence.

Limitations on the different amounts of compensation will not apply if it is proved that the damage was caused by an act of the haulier or an employee or agent of the haulier or by the performing haulier and that the act was done with the intent to cause such damage or with the knowledge that such damage would possibly result.

The traveller must hold a ticket or similar valid travel document when driving/walking on board. Tickets can be purchased on samsølinjen.dk, by phone and at check-in. Samsølinjen.dk provides a complete overview of all ticket types and the associated rules for changes and refunds. Tickets must be redeemed prior to departure and must be kept during the trip. The carrier reserves the right to charge a penalty fare if a passenger is caught driving/walking on board without a valid travel document. Refunds of tickets, regardless of the reason, are made via email to the carrier at kundeservice@samsoelinjen.dk.

When carrying sick persons, the carrier may require a medical certificate, and the sick person may be required to be accompanied during the trip. Care of sick persons or medical attendance is not a possibility. The carrier assumes no responsibility for bringing sick persons on board or ashore unless the illness has occurred during the trip.

Travellers are obliged to follow the instructions of the captain and ship's officers, see section 408 of the Danish Merchant Shipping Act (søloven). Damage to the carrier's equipment and other property will result in a claim for compensation. Intoxicated persons may be refused carriage even if they hold a ticket. Serving alcoholic drinks to intoxicated persons and to persons under the age of 18 is not permitted by law. Children under the age of 7 are not allowed to travel alone but must be accompanied by a person who is at least 16 years old. For people with disabilities or other special assistance needs, the carrier accommodates requests for parking close to the lift as far as possible. During the crossing, staying on the vehicle deck is prohibited, and smoking is only allowed in designated areas. Travellers may not, without the carrier's permission, offer goods for sale, distribute printed matter, ads, samples, organise collections or similar on board or ashore.

Pets can be left in the car during the crossing. Pets brought into the passenger areas must be kept on a lead or in appropriate crates and may be brought into the designated ”dog areas” on board.

Valuables left at SAMSØLINJEN will be handed over to the police. Forgotten medication will be handed over to the police or for destruction at a pharmacy as soon as possible. Other lost property will be stored by SAMSØLINJEN for up to 7 days after which it will be destroyed or handed over to charity. Lost property can be reported at samsoelinjen.com.

Complaints about conditions on board must be directed to the staff in the relevant department. Complaints regarding carriage must be directed to the carrier via email to kundeservice@samsoelinjen.dk.

If damage occurs to vehicles, persons, baggage or goods, possibly in the transport container on board, claims can only be made against SAMSØLINJEN if a damage report has been completed. Therefore, in case of an accident, contact the staff on board the ferry immediately. However, a completed damage report does not mean that SAMSØLINJEN automatically recognises liability. The damage can be reported to the carrier by filling out this claim form.

SAMSØLINJEN's ferries are registered in Denmark, and the safety language on board is Danish.
