Where insuperable obstacles (statutory provisions enacted by a state or some other instance of force majeure) militate against the timely presentation of the cheque or timely protest or equivalent declaration, the time limits for such actions are extended. The bearer is obliged to notify the immediately preceding endorser of the force majeure event without delay and to note such notification together with the date and place and his signature on the cheque or an annex thereto; in other respects, the provisions set out in Article 1042 are applicable. Once the force majeure ceases to apply, the holder must present the cheque for acceptance or for payment without delay and, where necessary, make protest or similar declaration. In the event that the force majeure lasts for longer than 15 days after the date on which the bearer himself notified the preceding endorser of the force majeure event prior to expiry of the time limit for presentation, recourse may be had without need for presentation or protest or similar declaration. Facts pertaining purely to the person of the bearer or a person charged with the task of presenting the cheque or making protest or arranging for an equivalent declaration do not count as force majeure events.

Sche la preschentaziun dal schec u sch’il far protesta a temp u sch’il far ina constataziun equivalenta vegn impedì d’in obstachel betg surmuntabel (prescripziun legala d’in stadi u in auter cas da forza superiura), vegnan prolungads ils termins ch’èn fixads per quests acts. Il possessur è obligà d’infurmar immediatamain ses indossant precedent direct davart il cas da forza superiura e da menziunar sin il schec u sin in’agiunta il di ed il lieu da l’infurmaziun sco er da munir quella cun sia suttascripziun; dal rest vegnan applitgadas las prescripziuns da l’artitgel 1042. Sche la forza superiura croda davent, sto il possessur preschentar il schec immediatamain per il pajament ed eventualmain laschar far protesta u laschar far ina constataziun equivalenta. Sche la forza superiura dura pli ditg che 15 dis dapi il di ch’il possessur ha infurmà – avant la scadenza dal termin da preschentaziun – ses indossant precedent davart il cas da la forza superiura, poi vegnir prendì regress senza ch’i saja necessari da far la preschentaziun u da far ina protesta u da far ina constataziun equivalenta. Fatgs dal tuttafatg persunals che pertutgan il possessur u quel ch’è incumbensà da preschentar il schec u da far protesta u da far ina constataziun equivalenta, na valan betg sco cas da forza superiura.
