Effective Date:January 1, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your engagement with OmniCargo Global. By proceeding, you acknowledge acceptance of these terms. Consult legal counsel for interpretation.
1. Introduction
These Terms of Service ('Terms') constitute a legally binding agreement between you ('Client,' 'Buyer,' or 'Seller') and OmniCargo Global ('Company,' 'we,' 'us,' or 'our') regarding the use of our international trading services.
OmniCargo Global operates as an independent merchant trading house headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, with operational presence in Rome, Italy. These Terms apply to all transactions facilitated through our platform or direct engagement.
OmniCargo Global acts as a principal-position merchant, not as a broker, agent, or logistics provider. We purchase and sell goods using our own capital and assume ownership risk. We are not a freight forwarder or logistics provider.
2. Definitions
An entity that buys and sells goods in its own name and for its own account, assuming title, risk, and reward of ownership during transactions.
When the merchant commits its own capital to purchase goods from suppliers before resale to buyers, bearing inventory risk and quality liability.
Independent logistics providers engaged by OmniCargo Global to execute transportation, warehousing, and customs clearance services. Liability for 3PL services is governed by separate contracts between Client and the 3PL provider.
3. Scope of Services
OmniCargo Global provides end-to-end trade execution services including:
- Strategic sourcing and procurement of goods from verified suppliers
- Quality control, inspection, and documentation verification
- Trade finance facilitation and payment security mechanisms
- Regulatory compliance management (EU standards, destination-market requirements)
Logistics execution is performed exclusively by vetted Third-Party Logistics (3PL) partners. OmniCargo Global is not liable for acts, omissions, or delays by 3PL providers beyond our direct control.
4. Merchant Role Clarification
As a principal-position merchant, OmniCargo Global assumes distinct responsibilities separate from brokers or agents:
Our Responsibilities
- Verify supplier credentials, product specifications, and compliance documentation
- Assume title and risk of goods during our ownership period
- Manage Incoterm® negotiations and commercial documentation
Client Responsibilities
- Provide accurate import requirements and regulatory specifications for destination market
- Secure necessary import licenses and permits in destination country
- Engage directly with 3PL partners for logistics execution oversight
5. Compliance Framework
All transactions adhere to European Union regulatory standards (including EC 852/2004 for food products where applicable), international trade laws, and sanctions regimes. We maintain rigorous due diligence protocols for supplier onboarding and transaction monitoring.
Clients warrant they will not use our services for transactions involving prohibited goods, sanctioned entities, or jurisdictions restricted under applicable law. Violations constitute material breach of these Terms.
6. Limitation of Liability
OmniCargo Global's liability is strictly limited to the transaction value of goods where we hold principal position. We expressly exclude liability for:
Indirect, consequential, or punitive damages; losses arising from force majeure events; acts of 3PL partners; or client failure to comply with import regulations in destination markets.
As a merchant trading house, our liability scope differs fundamentally from logistics providers. We warrant goods quality and documentation during our ownership period only.
