Force majeure

Third, regarding force majeure (article 23), although the International Law Commission's commentary indicates the applicability of the doctrine in some contexts of armed conflict, it again reiterates that force majeure operates as an excuse for non performance, not as an effect on treaties. In this regard, the commentary distinguishes force majeure from the doctrine of impossibility

Coercion for the purpose of article 18 has the same essential character as force majeure under article 23.

(a) The situation of force majeure is due, either alone or in combination with other factors, to the conduct of the State invoking it or

The baseline shall be defined in a way that CERs cannot be earned for decreases in activity levels outside the project activity or due to force majeure.

It was also observed that treaty practice provided limited exceptions to strict liability such as armed conflict, force majeure or compliance with a compulsory public measure, etc.

Yet the 2004 Economic and Social Survey argues that while these issues are a major force , they are not a force majeure and that a balanced development can be sparked by an adequate mixture of policies.

Force majeure excuses non performance for the time being, but a treaty is not automatically terminated by supervening impossibility at least one of the parties must decide to terminate it.

Thus, the force majeure doctrine can operate automatically but serves merely as an excuse for non performance the impossibility doctrine must be invoked, but serves to justify termination or suspension of the treaty itself.

Force majeure justifies non performance of the obligation for so long as the circumstance exists supervening impossibility justifies the termination of the treaty or its suspension in accordance with the conditions laid down in article 61.

While the same facts may amount, for example, to force majeure under article 23 and to a supervening impossibility of performance under article 61 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, the two are distinct.

With the exception of force majeure, in cases where goods that are under the supervision of safekeeping by customs incur damages or losses, persons held liable for safekeeping of the goods under supervision shall be responsible for the corresponding liability of duty payment.

1. The wrongfulness of an act of a State not in conformity with an international obligation of that State is precluded if the act is due to force majeure, that is the occurrence of an irresistible force or of an unforeseen event, beyond the control of the State, making it materially impossible in the circumstances to perform the obligation.

Where it is necessary on account of exceptional circumstances or emergency or force majeure not expressly provided for in this Agreement, the Council may, by special vote, relieve a member of an obligation under this Agreement if it is satisfied by an explanation from that member regarding the reasons why the obligation cannot be met.

The chapter on circumstances precluding wrongfulness in the International Law Commission's articles on the responsibility of States for internationally wrongful acts codifies several doctrines which could also apply with regard to treaties during armed conflict, including self defence (article 21), countermeasures (article 22), force majeure (article 23), distress (article 24) and necessity (article 25).

In cases where the taxpayer fails to pay the duties within the specified period of time due to force majeure or under the circumstances where the State is adjusting its taxation policies, they may delay their payment of duties, subject to the approval by the Customs General Administration, with the longest delay of no more than 6 months.
