Today, due to the increasing expansion of commercial exchanges, the transport contract has gained an important role and constitutes the most important basis for the development of commercial relations. In French law, the contract for the carriage of goods is regulated under a specific framework of laws and regulations, the aim of which is to create a balance between the rights and obligations of the parties and to ensure legal security in commercial relations. The aim of this research is to identify and comparatively analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the legal systems of Iran and France in the field of the contract for the transport of goods. The research method is descriptive-analytical and library-based with a theoretical approach and a comparative method on the laws and regulations of the two countries. The findings show that in the Iranian transportation industry, whether by air, land, or sea, transportation documents such as tickets or waybills represent an agreement between the passenger and the transportation company. As a result, if the conditions of contractual liability are met, the transportation company is obliged to compensate the passenger or the owner of the goods. In France, the country's legislator has provided a comprehensive structure for regulating this contract through civil, commercial, and international regulations, which has been supplemented with various amendments over time. This contract, which is classified as a special contract, follows the general provisions of the law of obligations, but at the same time, it has special rules that distinguish it from other compensatory contracts.
