In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires—"appointed date" means the date appointed by the Minister under section 1 for the coming into operation of this Act;"Civil Code" means the Civil Code of Seychelles;"Commercial Code of Seychelles" means the Code set out in the First Schedule;"enactment" means any Act, arrêté, proclamation or regulations, and includes rules of court;"existing Code" means the Code of Commerce referred to in section 4;"this Act" includes the Commercial Code of Seychelles;"revised edition of the Act" means the revised edition of the Laws of Seychelles prepared under the authority of the Law Revision Act, 1972. Subject to the provisions of this Act, the Commercial Code of Seychelles shall come into operation on the appointed date.[Note: The Act was brought into operation on 1 January 1977 by S.I. 95 of 1976] The Code of Commerce promulgated by the Arrêté of the 14th July 1809 (Decaen N. 208) as set out in Chapter 58 of the revised edition of the Acts (1971) and all amendments thereto, shall cease to have effect in Seychelles. The text of the Commercial Code of Seychelles, as in this Act contained, shall be deemed for all purpose to be an original text and shall not be construed or interpreted as a translated text. Save as provided in section 7, where there is any inconsistency between any provision of this Act and any provision in any enactment in force immediately prior to the appointed date, the provision of this Act shall prevail:Provided that any inconsistency between the Commercial Code of Seychelles and the Civil Code of Seychelles shall not operate to invalidate the latter which shall continue to apply to all matters dealt with thereunder. The Interpretation and General Provisions Act shall, subject to the provisions of this Act, apply in relation to the Interpretation of this Act, but shall not apply in relation to the Commercial Code of Seychelles, which shall be read and construed for all purposes in accordance with the rules of interpretation contained in the Civil Code of Seychelles. [Note to official 1994 edition: The numbering of the articles of the Commercial Code of Seychelles is intended, so far as possible, to correspond with the articles of the existing Code. Articles which only exist in number and which are described as repealed are intended to account for articles in the existing Code (as set out in the Fourth Schedule of this Act) which have no equivalent in the Commercial Code of Seychelles or which have been repealed by the relevant Acts referred to in the Commercial Code of Seychelles.] An emancipated minor of either sex who wished to avail himself of the privilege of engaging in commerce granted to him by article 487 of the Civil Code, shall only be permitted to begin business, or shall be deemed of full age in respect of obligations undertaken by way of trade, if he has been expressly authorised by the Court. [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] [repealed by Status of Married Woman Act. Schedule I] [repealed by Status of Married Woman Act. Schedule I] The books and accounts which merchants are bound to keep in accordance with paragraph 1 of article 8 of this Code shall also contain an annual balance sheet of assets and liabilities drawn up in accordance with the principles which are generally accepted by commercial practice. Such sheet shall be complete, clear and easy to read and must indicate as accurately as possible the financial position of the business or trade in which the merchant is engaged. The books and accounts kept by merchants shall not contain blank spaces nor shall any entry be added to, altered, erased or modified by any marginal entry. When the books, which persons engaged in commerce are bound to keep, are not properly or regularly kept, the Court shall be entitled to draw therefrom such inferences as may be reasonable in the circumstances. A party who, having a lawful cause, is unreasonably refused access to the commercial books and documents of another, may ask the Court to order the production of such books and documents. In the course of proceedings the Court may also order at its discretion the production of all books and documents or of extracts therefrom. In case the books the production of which is offered, required or ordered, are not easily available it shall be open to the Court to order that they shall be inspected by a person appointed by the Court. Such person shall be bound to draft a statement of the contents of such books and transmit it to the Court without delay. If a party in proceedings before the Court does not produce or offer to produce the books in evidence the Judge shall be entitled to tender the oath to the other party.

They may be carried on for the purposes, according to the forms, in the proportions of interest and in the conditions agreed upon among the partners. [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] Subject to the first rule of paragraph 2 of article 48 of this Code it shall be open to the Court, notwithstanding the provisions as to admissibility of evidence in respect of civil partnerships under article 1834 of the Civil Code, to admit in respect of commercial partnerships such evidence as it deems appropriate in the circumstances. The change of the members of the partnership or of the form under which it engages in business or trade shall not be presumed to create a different body corporate. A merger or a split of a commercial partnership shall have no effect without the unanimous approval of all the partners, if it results in an increase of the obligations of any one of the partners. The survival of the legal personality of a commercial partnership in liquidation shall be implied to the expert that it is necessary for the purposes of such liquidation. The abuse of the legal personality shall constitute a fault under paragraph 3 of article 1382 of the Civil Code. A partner shall not bind the other partners unless such partners have empowered him to do so. A third party, however, who has treated with a partner who has acted without authority, shall not be penalised if it was reasonable, in the special circumstances of a case, for such a party to assume that the partner has acted with the authority of the other partners. In this respect article 2009 of the Civil Code dealing with the ostensible authority of the agent shall have application mutatis mutandis. Unless the partners in a commercial partnership have agreed upon the method of dividing the profits upon dissolution, the partners individually shall be paid in the proportion in which they shared in the capital of the partnership at the time when the partnership was dissolved.

Fourth Schedule] [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] When the pledge has been given by a trader or by a person who is not a trader in a transaction of a commercial nature, the contract of pledge may be proved as provided by paragraph 1 of article 2074 of the Civil Code. In all other cases paragraphs 2 to 7 inclusive of the aforementioned article shall have application. Subject to any laws relating to pledges, or bills of exchange which are in force. Subject also to the Companies Act in respect of any pledge, mortgage or charge created by a company or an overseas company or affecting any assets of a company or an overseas company. If the debtor fails to pay when the debt falls due the creditor may, eight days after serving notice to the debtor and to the third party, if any, proceed to the public sale of the property pledged. A creditor may, with the permission of the Court, keep the property pledged by way of payment to the extent of its value. The Court may determine the value of such property without any reference to an expertise if the amount due is precisely known and the debtor obviously solvent. A mercantile agent is a person who transacts business either in his own name or under a trade name for the account of a principal. If he transacts business for his own account, in his own name or under a trade name, he is called a factor. Such factors are entrusted with the possession and disposal of property. If the mercantile agent transacts business for the account of a principal the agent's rights and duties are determined by the Civil Code, Title XIII of Book III. A mercantile agent who undertakes the carriage of goods by land, sea and air shall be bound by the rules laid down in articles 1782 to 1786 of the Civil Code. [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] Unless the parties have made a special agreement, when the services of a mercantile agent are used for the dispatch and delivery of the goods, the risk of loss, damage or delay thereof shall be borne by the owner. Subject to his right to be indemnified by the mercantile agent or the carrier of the goods. In respect of such dispatch and delivery Title III of Book III of the Civil Code on Contracts and Agreement in General shall have application. A consignment note or a receipt for goods delivered shall be evidence of a contract between the consignor and the carrier. When the contract is for the delivery of goods to a third party such consignment or receipt shall be evidence of the carrier's legal obligation to such third party. The Court may, however, freely determine in respect of such contracts, the extent to which evidence other than the aforementioned consignment note or receipt shall be taken into account. A consignment note shall not be made to order. Nevertheless, if such a consignment note or other document or receipt treated as such, refers specifically to a named third party as consignee, such reference shall be prima facie evidence that the consignee is entitled to the possession of the goods consigned and the carrier shall be under a duty to deliver the same. If, because of an inevitable accident or an act of God, the goods are not delivered within the period stipulated, no indemnity shall be payable by the carrier on account of the delay. Nevertheless, any penal clauses inserted in the contract in respect of delay, shall be valid to the extent that they are declared valid by article 1229 of the Civil Code. The provision of this title shall apply to all types of carriage. Subject to the rules established by any international convention to the extent that it is adopted by the parties as the law of the contract under paragraph 7 of article 3 of the Civil code, or by any international conventions applicable to Seychelles or such special domestic legislation as is enacted from time to time. Actions arising out of the carriage of goods, as well as all other commercial actions, shall be subject to the rules of prescription established by Title XX of Book III of the Civil Code. The period runs as from the time when the right of action arose. In commercial matters joint and several liability shall be presumed and need not be expressly stated. In commercial transactions damages shall be due by operation of law from the moment that the breach occurs without the necessity of a previous notification as provided for ordinary contracts under article 1146 of the Civil Code. When a breach of a commercial contract occurs, the party innocent of the breach shall be entitled to treat the contract as discharged by operation of law.The rules of article 1184 of the Civil Code, insofar as they require that when a breach of contract occurs discharge thereof shall be obtained through proceedings, shall not apply to commercial transactions. In the case of a sale by sample or subject to a trial, there is an implied condition that the bulk shall correspond with the sample in quality; that the buyer shall have a reasonable opportunity for comparing the bulk with the sample; and that the goods shall be free from any defect, rendering them unmerchantable, which would not be apparent on reasonable examination of the sample. The sale of goods, in a manner which constitutes an abuse of fair, well-recognised and established commercial practises, shall be subject to paragraph 3 of article 1382 of the Civil Code. [repealed by Bills of Exchange Act] An arbitration agreement shall not be valid if it gives one of the parties thereto a privileged position with regard to the appointment of the arbitrator or arbitrators. The parties may, either in the arbitration agreement or subsequently thereto, appoint the sole arbitrator or the arbitrators or entrust the appointment thereof to a third party. If the parties have not appointed the arbitrators and have not agreed on a method of appointment, each party shall, when the dispute arises, appoint an arbitrator, or an equal number of arbitrators, as the case may be. Unless the parties have agreed otherwise, neither the arbitration agreement nor the office of arbitrator shall be terminated by the death of one of the parties. If, without legitimate cause, a party properly summoned does not appear or does not present his case within period fixed, the arbitral tribunal may, unless the other party requests an adjournment, investigate the matter in dispute and make an award. Except where otherwise stipulated, an arbitral tribunal may make a final award in the form of one or more awards. Except where otherwise stipulated, arbitrators shall make their awards in accordance with the rules of law. [Note: The inclusion of a second (disordered) article 131 reflects the official 1994 edition] Unless the award is contrary to public policy or the dispute was not capable of settlement by arbitration, an arbitral award shall have the authority of res judicata when it has been notified in accordance with paragraph 1 of article 132 and may no longer be contested before arbitrators. If there are grounds for setting aside any part of an award, that part shall be set aside only if it can be separated from the other parts of the award. Unless a contrary intention is expressed therein, every arbitration agreement shall, where such a provision is applicable to the reference, be deemed to contain a provision that the arbitrator may, if he thinks fit, make an interim award. Any reference in Title IX of Book I of this Code to an award shall include a reference to an interim award. Such an interim award may be registered by leave of the Supreme Court and enforced with the consent of the parties. An arbitral tribunal shall in making a final award, be entitled to take into account an unreasonable refusal to consent to the registration and enforcement of such an interim award which leads to any increase of the loss suffered by a party. Generally, any matter arising out of an arbitration agreement, the conduct of the arbitration, the making of an interim or final award and the execution thereof, which are not dealt with in this Code, shall be left to the discretion of the Court upon the application of an interested party. Unless a contrary intention is expressed in the arbitration agreement, the arbitrator shall have power to correct in an award any clerical mistake or error arising from an accidental slip or omission. On the basis of reciprocity, the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, 1958, and the arbitral award within the meaning of the said Convention shall be binding. Such Convention shall apply to the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards made in the territory of a State other than Seychelles and arising out of differences between persons, whether physical or legal. It shall also apply to arbitral awards not considered as domestic awards in Seychelles. Arbitral awards under the said Convention shall be recognised as binding and shall be enforced in accordance with the rules of procedure in force in Seychelles. The conditions or fees or charges on the recognition or enforcement of arbitral awards to which the said Convention applies shall not be more onerous than those required for the recognition or enforcement of domestic arbitral awards. The party seeking to enforce an arbitral award under the Convention must provide: [repealed by Commercial Code Act. Fourth Schedule] [repealed by Commercial Code Act.
