最新Unit 10  Shipment资料

Unit 10 ShipmentPart One Basic Knowledge Concerned1. The Domain of ShipmentShipment is one of the essential links in the chain of international trade. The main activities of it include custom clearance, vessel chartering or shipping space booking, obtaining shipping documents after passing goods to the shipping company and sending shipping advice. Goods can be transported by road, rail or air, but in most cases of international trade, by sea.This unit focuses on the most common conveyance method—ocean transportation, and on the necessary work related to shipment from the perspective and position of an exporter.2. The Requirements of ShipmentIn a sales contract, a sales confirmation or a Letter of Credit, terms of shipment are indispensable. Terms of shipment, which indicate the latest shipment time, ports of loading and unloading/destination, shipment documents needed and stipulation of partial shipment and transshipment, are the requirements of shipment agreed by both the seller and the buyer who enter into the sales contract.In addition to these requirements, more instructions about shipment are given to the seller by the buyer. It is a written document called the “shipping instructions”, which states, other than what has been regulated in the sales contract or the Letter of Credit, the packing requirements and shipping marks of the cargo.3. The Bill of LadingThe Bill of Lading, or the Ocean Bill of Lading, or B/L for short, is the document that the carrier, i.e. the shipping company makes, signs and issues to the consignor/exporter after receiving the cargo entrusted by the latter. It is a cargo receipt, an evidence of the carriage contract and most importantly, the document of title/ownership to the goods.Under the payment method of L/C, B/L is always one of the key documents that the beneficiary/exporter needs to submit when he/she asks for negotiation in the negotiation bank. Under the payment method of collection, i.e. D/P or D/A, B/L is also one of the core documents that the importer pays or signs to receive.4. The Shipping AdviceAfter the goods are loaded on board the ship, the exporter should immediately send the shipping advice to the importer informing the latter about the details of the shipment so that the importer can make preparation for receiving the goods and considering the sales distribution channels and more urgently, buy insurance if the trade term is FOB or CFR. Teletransmission is preferred for sending the shipping advice under FOB or CFR for the sake of speed.5. Method of ShipmentIn international trade, shipment can be made by sea, air, rail, truck and parcel post. In order to deliver goods more efficiently, we also have multimodal transport and land bridge transport. The choice of shipping methods depends on the nature of the products, the distance to be shipped, available means of transportation, and relative freight costs.Part Two Letter-writing GuideFor letters written by the importer1. Reminding or urging the exporter of when and how to ship the goodsWe refer to Contract No.EU1342 signed between us on August 1, 2012 for Men’s Shirts,which stipulates that the latest shipment date is October 20, 2012.我们于2012年8月1日签订的EU1342号关于男士衬衫的合同规定, 最迟装船期为2012 年10月20日。We are eager to know the details about the shipment of the 10 containers of bathroomequipment we ordered last month.我们迫切地想知道上月我们所订的10个集装箱浴室设备的具体发运情况。Due to an unexpected development we were wondering whether you could advance shipment of the consignment from November to October.鉴于可能出现意想不到的状况, 我们想知道贵方能否将这批货物的装运期从11月提前到10月。2. Expressing the reason why punctual shipment is requiredAs our company is in urgent need of the goods we would like to emphasize again theimportance of the punctual shipment within the validity of the L/C.因为本公司急需这批货,所以我们想再次强调在信用证有效期内准时装运的重要性。Please strictly adhere to the latest shipment date indicated in the L/C because our distributors have been waiting for the arrival of these Chinese art crafts with high anticipation.请严格遵照信用证中有关最迟装运期的规定, 因为我们的分销商们一直在满怀希望地等待着这批中国工艺品的到达。Delay of the shipment will lead to the irretrievable disastrous loss when the Christmas season passes.延误了装运期会带来不可挽回的巨大损失, 因为到时圣诞节的销售旺季已过。3. Indicating the consequences of the exporter’s action of shipmentIn case you should fail to effect the shipment by the end of this month we would have tolodge a claim against you for the loss as is stipulated in the sales confirmation signed by both of us in January of this year.如果贵方到本月底前还不发货的话,我们将不得不按照今年1月双方所签的销售确认书中的有关规定对你们提出索赔。If your first consignment is promptly delivered and proves to conform to the samples weconfirmed we are quite willing to offer more orders.如果贵方的首批货物能及时运来, 且产品品质与我们之前确认的样品品质相符的话, 我们会很乐意下更多的订单。For letters written by the exporter1. Informing the importer of details of the shipmentWe are glad to inform you that the goods have already been shipped by...我们高兴地告知贵方, 货物已由……船起运。Here is the fax of the shipping advice where it is clearly stated that the cargo will reach you within 7 days.这是装运通知的传真件, 上面清楚地显示了这批货将在7天内抵达贵方。This is the copy of the B/L and you can prepare for receiving the consignment according to the information it contains.这是提单的复印件, 贵方可根据单上的信息去准备接货。2. Declining the importer’s push on shipmentWe feel sorry that we really cannot ship the cargo before... because...我们很抱歉真的无法在……之前装运该批货物, 原因是……We felt apologetic that we really have no way to make shipment on...我方实在无法于……(日期)装运货物, 谨向贵方表示歉意。Your request of advancing the shipment date by one month is absolutely beyond ourcapability although we strongly wish we could have complied with your request.尽管我们很想满足贵方欲把装运期提前一个月的愿望, 但这一要求大大超出了我们的能力范围。Part 3 Commonly Used Expressions and Sentence PatternsExpressions1. shipper/consignor2. shipping serviceshipping companyforwarding agent3. shipping instructionshipping advice4. on board5. optional port6. make a partial shipment7. be transshipped (at)8. book shipping space on... for...9. to be ready for shipment10. ship goods by S.S.

Unit 10 ShipmentPart One Basic Knowledge Concerned1. The Domain of ShipmentShipment is one of the essential links in the chain of international trade. The main activities of it include custom clearance, vessel chartering or shipping space booking, obtaining shipping documents after passing goods to the shipping company and sending shipping advice. Goods can be transported by road, rail or air, but in most cases of international trade, by sea.This unit focuses on the most common conveyance method—ocean transportation, and on the necessary work related to shipment from the perspective and position of an exporter.2. The Requirements of ShipmentIn a sales contract, a sales confirmation or a Letter of Credit, terms of shipment are indispensable. Terms of shipment, which indicate the latest shipment time, ports of loading and unloading/destination, shipment documents needed and stipulation of partial shipment and transshipment, are the requirements of shipment agreed by both the seller and the buyer who enter into the sales contract.In addition to these requirements, more instructions about shipment are given to the seller by the buyer. It is a written document called the “shipping instructions”, which states, other than what has been regulated in the sales contract or the Letter of Credit, the packing requirements and shipping marks of the cargo.3. The Bill of LadingThe Bill of Lading, or the Ocean Bill of Lading, or B/L for short, is the document that the carrier, i.e. the shipping company makes, signs and issues to the consignor/exporter after receiving the cargo entrusted by the latter. It is a cargo receipt, an evidence of the carriage contract and most importantly, the document of title/ownership to the goods.Under the payment method of L/C, B/L is always one of the key documents that the beneficiary/exporter needs to submit when he/she asks for negotiation in the negotiation bank. Under the payment method of collection, i.e. D/P or D/A, B/L is also one of the core documents that the importer pays or signs to receive.4. The Shipping AdviceAfter the goods are loaded on board the ship, the exporter should immediately send the shipping advice to the importer informing the latter about the details of the shipment so that the importer can make preparation for receiving the goods and considering the sales distribution channels and more urgently, buy insurance if the trade term is FOB or CFR. Teletransmission is preferred for sending the shipping advice under FOB or CFR for the sake of speed.5. Method of ShipmentIn international trade, shipment can be made by sea, air, rail, truck and parcel post. In order to deliver goods more efficiently, we also have multimodal transport and land bridge transport. The choice of shipping methods depends on the nature of the products, the distance to be shipped, available means of transportation, and relative freight costs.Part Two Letter-writing GuideFor letters written by the importer1. Reminding or urging the exporter of when and how to ship the goodsWe refer to Contract No.EU1342 signed between us on August 1, 2012 for Men’s Shirts,which stipulates that the latest shipment date is October 20, 2012.我们于2012年8月1日签订的EU1342号关于男士衬衫的合同规定, 最迟装船期为2012 年10月20日。We are eager to know the details about the shipment of the 10 containers of bathroomequipment we ordered last month.我们迫切地想知道上月我们所订的10个集装箱浴室设备的具体发运情况。Due to an unexpected development we were wondering whether you could advance shipment of the consignment from November to October.鉴于可能出现意想不到的状况, 我们想知道贵方能否将这批货物的装运期从11月提前到10月。2. Expressing the reason why punctual shipment is requiredAs our company is in urgent need of the goods we would like to emphasize again theimportance of the punctual shipment within the validity of the L/C.因为本公司急需这批货,所以我们想再次强调在信用证有效期内准时装运的重要性。Please strictly adhere to the latest shipment date indicated in the L/C because our distributors have been waiting for the arrival of these Chinese art crafts with high anticipation.请严格遵照信用证中有关最迟装运期的规定, 因为我们的分销商们一直在满怀希望地等待着这批中国工艺品的到达。Delay of the shipment will lead to the irretrievable disastrous loss when the Christmas season passes.延误了装运期会带来不可挽回的巨大损失, 因为到时圣诞节的销售旺季已过。3. Indicating the consequences of the exporter’s action of shipmentIn case you should fail to effect the shipment by the end of this month we would have tolodge a claim against you for the loss as is stipulated in the sales confirmation signed by both of us in January of this year.如果贵方到本月底前还不发货的话,我们将不得不按照今年1月双方所签的销售确认书中的有关规定对你们提出索赔。If your first consignment is promptly delivered and proves to conform to the samples weconfirmed we are quite willing to offer more orders.如果贵方的首批货物能及时运来, 且产品品质与我们之前确认的样品品质相符的话, 我们会很乐意下更多的订单。For letters written by the exporter1. Informing the importer of details of the shipmentWe are glad to inform you that the goods have already been shipped by...我们高兴地告知贵方, 货物已由……船起运。Here is the fax of the shipping advice where it is clearly stated that the cargo will reach you within 7 days.这是装运通知的传真件, 上面清楚地显示了这批货将在7天内抵达贵方。This is the copy of the B/L and you can prepare for receiving the consignment according to the information it contains.这是提单的复印件, 贵方可根据单上的信息去准备接货。2. Declining the importer’s push on shipmentWe feel sorry that we really cannot ship the cargo before... because...我们很抱歉真的无法在……之前装运该批货物, 原因是……We felt apologetic that we really have no way to make shipment on...我方实在无法于……(日期)装运货物, 谨向贵方表示歉意。Your request of advancing the shipment date by one month is absolutely beyond ourcapability although we strongly wish we could have complied with your request.尽管我们很想满足贵方欲把装运期提前一个月的愿望, 但这一要求大大超出了我们的能力范围。Part 3 Commonly Used Expressions and Sentence PatternsExpressions1. shipper/consignor2. shipping serviceshipping companyforwarding agent3. shipping instructionshipping advice4. on board5. optional port6. make a partial shipment7. be transshipped (at)8. book shipping space on... for...9. to be ready for shipment10. ship goods by S.S.
