English translation of the principle

It is sufficient that the agency of the ship’s maritime agent be established under the general rules for those interested in the goods to have the right to sue it as representative of the carrier and in the enforcement of judicial judgments. The absence of the ship’s maritime agent from the register of ship agents does not alter this. An example.
Arabic original
كفاية أن تثبت وكالة الوكيل البحري للسفينة طبقاً للقواعد العامة حتى يكون لأصحاب الشأن في البضاعة الحق في إختصامه بكونه ممثلاً للناقل وفي تنفيذ الأحكام القضائية. لا يغير من ذلك عدم إدراج الوكيل البحري للسفينة بسجل قيد وكلاء السفن. مثال.
