Nevertheless, application of conflict-of-lawrules may still be inevitable. Since 17 December 2009 the primary source of conflict-of-law rules has been Regulation (EC) no. 593/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Rome I). This Regulation prompted a major reform of Polish private international law; the new law was enacted on 4 February 2011 and entered into force on 16 May 2011. Currently, as the Author points out, the flag of the vessel is no longer relevant as a potential connecting factor in shipping contracts.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Conflict of Laws in International Maritime Transport Law}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/93142/mainfile.pdf}, }
