Goal: investigate legal issues on membership of the Republic of Azerbaijan in the International Criminal Court. Methods of research: analysis and study of regulatory documents containing provisions on the international railway carriage of goods. Railway transport in developed countries takes a leading place in comparison with other modes of transport. This is due to its versatility – the ability to serve various sectors of the economy and meet the needs of the population in transportation, regardless of the conditions in which the transportation is carried out. Therefore, for almost two hundred years, rail transport remains the main means of moving goods.
There are several types of international transportation known to international rail freight traffic, each of which has its own legal characteristics. Consider the following types of transportation: 1. Transportation of direct and indirect messages. 2. Rail or mixed international transport. 3. Non-reloading and reloading international transportation. 4. Neighboring and transit international transportation. 5. International traffic with reconsignment and border transportation. 6. Special types of cargo transportation. Among the listed types of transportation, in our opinion, currently the most effective are mixed container transportation or intermodal, multimodal, combined, i.e. involving two or more modes of transport, and the delivery process itself was called “intermodal” or “multimodal” transportation. Discussion: offering a comprehensive and detailed study and use of this practice in academia.
