[online]. 2022, vol.55, n.164, pp.162-182. Epub 14-Jun-2024. ISSN 2448-4873. https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24484873e.2022.164.18094.
The COVID-19 pandemic not only had profound impacts on humanity, but also on the global economy and legal relations between international commerce actors, causing contracting parties to invoke theories of the excessive burden of the provision and the risk to balance their obligations or to terminate the contracts.

As is known, approximately eighty percent of international trade is moved by ship, hence the importance of analyzing impacts that the global pandemic may have had through the legal mechanisms used by the parties involved in a transport contract maritime cargo to renegotiate or terminate the contract.
