Abstract
The economy of China is accelerating at a pace, with an average of 10.5 per cent per year. It reflects that China has enormous influence in the realm of global commercial and maritime interests. It urges to study Chinese Carriage of Goods by Sea (COGSA). The paper provides broader illustration of Carrier's Liability in Chinese Maritime Law. The global history of liability regime is not static, rather it is evolving. Liability regime is such a field where new development has been happening from time to time. China is not an exception from that. In China, which is a statute law country, the legal system of COGSA is structured upon Chinese National Laws.
