Abstract
Date: 03.09.1992
Country: Netherlands
Number: 1991/1316
Court: Arrondissementsrechtbank Arnhem
Parties: Sigrid Jacobs v. Auto Opgenoort BV
In 1991 a German resident purchased a car from a Dutch company. A dispute arose between the parties.

Applying Dutch rules of private international law, the court held that Dutch law and as such the 1964 Hague Convention relating to a Uniform Law on the International Sale of Goods (ULIS) was applicable. The court further held that CISG was not applicable as the contract had been concluded before January 1, 1992, being the date of entry into force of CISG in The Netherlands (Art. 100 CISG).
