Bill of Lading 海运提单

Bill of Lading 海运提单A bill of lading is a receipt for goods shipped on board a vessel, signed by the person (or his agent) who contracts to carry them, and stating the conditions in which the goods were delivered to (and received by) the ship. It is not the actual contract, but forms excellent evidence of the terms of the contract. It is a document of title to the goods, enabling the shipper or owner of the goods to endorse title to other parties, sell goods in transit, and present to banks with other documents in seeking payment under documentary credits. Abbreviated generally as B/L, it is the most important document for sea transport.There are different types of bill of lading:（1）Shipped (On Board) B/L and received for shipment B/L已装船提单和备运提单·Shipped B/L is issued by the shipping company after the goods are actually shipped on board the designatedvessel. Since shipped bill of lading provides better guarantee for the consignee to receive the cargo at the destination, the importer will normally require the exporter to produce shipped B/L and most bill of lading forms are preprinted as “Shipped Bill”.·Received for Shipment B/L arises where the word “shipped” does not appear on the bill of lading. It merely confirms that the goods have been handed over to, and are in the custody of the shipowner. The buyer under a CIF contract will not accept such a B/L because, in the absence of the date of shipment, he is in no position to anticipate the arrival of the consignment.（2）Clean B/L and unclean B/L清洁提单和不清洁提单· A clean bill of lading is the one that states that the goods have been “shipped in apparent good order and condition”. It is issued when the goods do not show any defects on their exteriors at the time of loading at the port of shipment. This type is favored by the buyer and the banks for financial settlement purposes.·If defects are found on the exteriors of the goods, or the shipping company does not agree to any of the statements in the B/L, the bill will be marked as “unclean”, “foul” or “… packages in damaged condition”. Unclean B/L is usually unacceptable to the buyer and banks.（3）Straight, blank and order B/L记名、不记名和指示提单·Straight bill of lading has a designated consignee. Under this bill, only the named consignee at the destination is entitled to take delivery of the cargo. As it is not transferable, it is not commonly used in international trade and normally applies to high-value shipments or goods for special purposes.·Blank B/L also called Open B/L or Bearer B/L, means that there is no definite consignee of the goods. There usually appear in the box of consignee words like “To bearer”. Anyone who holds the bill is entitled to the goods the bill represents. No endorsement is needed for the transfer of the blank bill. Due to the exceedingly highrisk involved, this bill is rarely used.·Order B/L is widely used in international trade. It means that the goods are consigned or destined to the order of a named person. In the box of consignee, “To order”, “To order of the shipper”, or “To order of the consignee” is marked. It can be transferred only after endorsement is made. If the B/L is made out “To order of the shipper”, the shipper will endorse the bill. If it is made out “To order of the consignee”, the consignee will endorse the bill to transfer it. A blank endorsement is usually required for a “To order” bill.（4）Direct, transshipment, through bill of lading 直运、转船和联运提单·Transhipment B/L means that the goods need to be transshipped at an intermediate port as there is no direct service between the shipment port and the destination port.·It is sometimes necessary to employ two or more carriers to get the goods to their final destination. In thiscase, usually the first carrier will sign and issue a through bill of lading. The on-carriage may be either by a second vessel or by a different form of transport.（5）Liner B/L, container B/L and combined transport B/L班轮、集装箱和多式联运提单·Liner bill of lading is issued by a liner company for shipment on scheduled port calls through scheduled routes.·Container B/L is becoming more common in use with the development of containerization. It covers the goods from port to port or from inland point of departure to inland point of destination.·Combined transport B/L is issued by combined transport operator that covers the multi-modal transport on a door-to-door basis in one contract of carriage. It is ideal for container movements. It differs from “through B/L” in that combined transport is operated by only one carrier.（6）Long form B/L and short form B/L全式提单和简式提单·Long form B/L is more detailed with shipping contract clause printed on the back of the page.·Short form B/L, as the name implies, is an abbreviated type of document, smaller and not containing the long list of detailed clauses that generally appear on bills of lading. In certain circumstances it may not, therefore, be considered a suitable form of evidence of contract or affreightment.（7）On Deck B/L, stale B/L, ante-dated B/L and advanced B/L舱面提单、过期提单、倒签提单和预签提单·On Deck B/L is issued when the cargo is loaded on the ship’s deck. It applies to goods like livestock, plants, dangerous cargo, or awkwardly-shaped goods that can not fit into the ship’s holds. In this case, the goods are exposed to greater risks and therefore usually specific insurance must be taken out against additional risks.·It is important that the Bill of Lading is available at the port of destination before the goods arrive or, failing this, at the same time. Bills presented to the consignee or buyer or his bank after the goods are due at the port of destination are described as “Stale Bs/L”. As a cargo cannot be collected by the buyer without the Bill of Lading, the late arrival of this all-important document may have undesirable consequences such as warehouse rent, etc. and therefore should be avoided. Sometimes especially in the case of short sea voyages, it is necessary to add a clause of “Stale B/L is acceptable”.·Ante-dated B/L means when the actual shipment date is later than that stipulated in the L/C, the carrier sometimes, at the shipper’s request, issues a B/L with a date of signature that suits the requirement so as to avoid non-acceptance by the bank. Due to the risk of the goods being rejected by the buyer arising from the issuance of such a bill, it is advisable to avoid this mal practice even when it seems necessary in certain circumstances.·Advanced B/L is issued when the expiry date of the L/C is due but the exporter hasn’t yet got the goods ready for shipment. The purpose of issuing such a bill is to negotiate payment with the bank in time within the validity of the L/C. it is also regarded as unlawful and risky and should be avoided.Still there are some other types of B/L such as Groupage B/L which covers a number of consignments from different shippers, and House B/L issued by a freight forwarder to each individual shipper, and so on. House B/L is issued By the freight forwarder before he gets one groupage B/L from the shipowner.All the above mentioned bills are not independent of each other. Several types may be combined into one like “Clean on board, to order, blank endorsed B/L”. A received for shipment bill may also be a straight and clean bill. Bills of lading are made out in sets, consisting of a number of originals (usually three) and a number of copies and marked” and “copy” respectively. Only the originals signed by the carrier enable the consignee totake delivery of the goods. The copies are just for reference.Types of Risks, Losses and Expenses Covered（1）Two types of risks are covered by ocean marine insurance:One is the perils of the sea, including both natural calamities and unexpected accidents. Natural calamities include heavy weather, lightening, Tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption and so on. Accidents refer to fire, explosion, vessel being stranded, grounded, sunk or capsized, collision or contact of vessel with any external object other than water, etc.The other type of risks is external (extraneous) risks including general external risks and special external risks. General external risks include theft and pilferage, contamination, leakage, breakage, sweating and/or heating, taint of odor, rusting, hook damage, fresh and/or rain water damage, short-delivery and non-delivery, shortage in weight, clashing and so on. Special risks include war, strike, failure to deliver due to some special laws or regulations.（2）Two types of losses are covered by marine cargo insurance. One is total loss and the other partial loss.Total loss is divided into actual total loss and constructive total loss. Actual total loss means the complete loss of the insured cargo in value.A constructive total loss occurs when the cost of salvaging the shipment would be more than the salvaged value of the merchandise. The shipment insured is reasonably abandoned as any further efforts at salvage would be fruitless. Most insurance policies provide for the payment of a total loss up to the insured amount.Partial loss means the loss of part of the insured cargo. It can be divided into generalaverage and particular average:General average is based upon a relationship between the shipowner and all the shippers who have cargo aboard the same vessel on a particular voyage. All these parties are bound together in the “adventure”. Sometimes, when the whole ship was threatened by a peril of the sea or some other hazard, in order to save he ship and some of the cargo or vessel have to be sacrificed, then an act of general average would be declared. According to maritime law, those interests whose property was saved must contribute proportionally to cover the losses of the one whose property was voluntarily sacrificed.·Particular average means a partial loss suffered by part of the cargo. It occurs when a storm or fire damages part of the shipper’s cargo and no one else’s cargo has to be sacrificed to save the voyage. The cargo owner whose goods were damaged or lost should refer to his insurance company, provided hispolicy covers the specific type of loss suffered.（3）Ocean cargo insurance also covers the expenses incurred to avoid or reduce the damage to or loss of the subject matter insured. There are mainly two types of expenses. One is sue and labor expenses paid by the assured or his agent. The other is salvage charge paid by the party other than the insurer and /or the insured.Main Types of Insurance 主要的保险种类There are mainly two types of insurance coverage, basic coverage and additional coverage. Basic coverage mainly includes FPA, WPA and All Risks. Additional coverage includes general additional coverage and special additional coverage.（1）FPA (Free from Particular Average) is alimited form of cargo insurance cover under which no partial loss or damage is recoverable. It only provides coverage for total losses and general average emerging from the actual “marine perils” like vessel being stranded, grounded or sunk.（2）WPA (With Particular average) is a wider cover than FPA. It provides extensive cover against all loss or damage due to marine perils throughout the duration of the policy, including partial loss or damage which may be attributed to natural calamities like heavy weather.（3）All Risks is the most comprehensive of the three basic coverages under which the insurer is responsible for all total or partial loss of, or damage to the goods insured either arising from sea perils or general external causes. However, it does not cover loss, damage or expense caused by delay, inherentvice or nature of the goods insured, or special external risks of war, strike, etc.（4）General additional risks include TPND (Theft, Pilferage and Non-delivery), Fresh and/or Rain Water Damage, Risk of Shortage, Risk of Intermixture and Contamination, Risk of Leakage, Risk of Clash and Breakage, Risk of Odor, Damage caused by Heating and/or Sweating, Hook Damage, Risk of Rust, etc. These additional risks can not be covered independently and should go with FPA or WPA and are included in All Risks coverage.（5）Special additional risks include War Risk, Strikes Risk(SRCC, Strikes, Riots & Civil Commotions), Failure to Deliver Risk, Import Duty Risk, On Deck Risk, Rejection Risk, etc., among which war risk and strikes risk are more common. These additional coverages are usually taken out together with FPA, WPA and All risks.To choose an insurance coverage that is both economical and effective, the exporter or the importer should be aware of the possible losses to be expected of a particular consignment. Different items have different natures and may apply to different insurance types. For example, cargo like iron ore faces little risk of partial loss, so FPA will be sufficient. Most manufactured goods are covered against All Risks as they are prone to damage caused by sea perils or external risks. It is important that the Bill of Lading is available at the port of destination before the goods arrive or, failing this, at the same time. Bills presented to the consignee or buyer or his bank after the goods are due at the port of destination are described as “Stale Bs/L”. As a cargo cannot be collected by the buyer without the Bill of Lading, the late arrival of this all-important document may have undesirable consequences such aswarehouse rent, etc. and therefore should be avoided. Sometimes especially in the case of short sea voyages, it is necessary to add a clause of “Stale B/L is acceptable”.> shipping advice -- to importer ].

Bill of Lading -IntroductionWhen discussing Bills of Lading, we must distinguish between a carrier B/L (B/L) and a House B/L (HBL). Please see separate chapter for HBL.In Maersk Logistics, we do not issue carrier Bills of Lading. Only Ocean Carriers (also known as VOCCs or shipping lines) can issue a carrier B/L.In the old days, the Bill of Lading was a document issued by the captain of the vessel for goods carried onboard his vessel. This is not practical today where instead the document is issued by an agent acting on behalf of the captain.Maersk Sealand’s offices around the world have been empowered to sign Bills of Lading on behalf of “the captain” (the principal carrier).Bill of Lading - Issuing PartyThe B/L is issued by an ocean carrier, also known as a VOCC（船公司，有船公共承运人） (vessel-operating common carrier) or shipping line（航运公司）.Maersk Sealand（马士基海陆有限公司）, being a VOCC, issues Bs/L for goods shipped onboard their vessels.Bill of Lading – FunctionsBasically, a Bill of Lading has 3 functions:1. A receipt （收据）for the cargo2. A document of title3. Evidence of a contract of carriage1. Receipt for cargoThe B/L is a receipt by the carrier that the goods are in his custody（保管）. The B/L acts as a receipt between the shipper and the carrier until such time as title has been passed to a third party (the consignee). Then it becomes an independent contract between the carrier and the third party. The thirdparty assumes（接管，承担） the rights, responsibilities and obligations identical （同一的，完全相同的）to those of the shipper.2. Evidence of contract of carriageIt is common to hear the B/L referred to as the ‘contract of carriage’. However, the contract of carriageis always the underlying（基本的） agreement between the carrier and the customer to carry his goods. The B/L is merely evidence of this.The B/L evidences a contract of carriage between the ocean carrier and the shipper/consignee in theB/L.Also see: Evidence of contract of carriage in the Glossary（词汇表）.3. Document of Title（物权凭证，所有权凭证）A B/L is a Document of Title. This means that the legal right (the title) to the goods covered by the B/L can pass from one party to another by means of endorsements （背书）(please see explanation below). The carrier will only release the goods at destination to a rightful holder of a duly endorsed（提单可以适当背书） original Bill of Lading.At the time the B/L is issued, the shipper will advise the carrier who the B/L should be consigned（交付） to - I.e. who the Consignee on the B/L is.The shipper can choose to consign the B/L in different ways:a. Full name and address of an individual or companyb. “TO ORDER” (of shipper)c. “TO ORDER OF [bank]” - example: To order of Dubai Bankd. “TO ORDER OF [company]” - example: To order of Toy Trader Ltd.e. “TO ORDER OF [individual]” - example: To order of Gary Jensen, Street, City“To order” means that the party can transfer their rights as consignee to another party by endorsing the B/L.3a. EndorsementAn endorsement is a signature (and company stamp) on the B/L (and preferably also a clear written statement that the B/L is being endorsed to “Company XYZ”). The endorsement is written on the original B/L document by the party who is shown as the consignee on the B/L but now wishes to transfer this right to another party.When obtaining the endorsed B/L, the new consignee now assumes all rights, obligations and responsibilities that were previously vested in the first consignee. This also includes the right to transfer the B/L to yet another party by adding a new endorsement on the B/L document. In this way, a chain of endorsements may take place.The Ocean Carrier （海运承运人）will check the endorsements on the original B/L document before releasing the goods at destination. As you can see, it is not always the first consignee (as printed on the B/L when it was issued) that actually take delivery of the goods at destination.Because of this function ad Document of Title, a B/L is often referred to as a “negotiable”（可转让的）document but “transferable” is actually the more correct term.Bill of Lading - Originals and CopiesThe fact that the carrier B/L functions as Document of Title places great importance on the B/L document. All parties involved (shipper, consignee and carrier) rely on the document to decide who can take delivery of the goods at destination.The carrier will normally print a B/L document in 3 originals and a reasonable number of copies. It is only an Original B/L document that can be transferred to another party. The copies may be pre-printed ‘Copy’ or ‘Non-Negotiable’. Both are non-transferable.Although 3 originals have been issued, the carrier will release the goods at destination to whoever presents one duly and properly endorsed original B/LNow you may think: “But what if the shipper （托运人，发货人，货主）sells the goods twice and endorses two of the original Bs/L to two different parties?”The carrier must exercise due care to check that the B/L is properly endorsed to the party who submits （提交）it. If this is the case and the carrier is in good faith, he can release the goods. The change of ownership of the cargo is a matter between the seller and the buyer only. The carrier is not involved. If the seller has sold the goods twice, it is a matter between the seller and the two buyers.Bill of Lading - Carrier’s responsibilityThe three main areas of responsibility of the carrier under a B/L are:1. Responsibility for correct description of the goods2. Responsibility to release the goods to the properly entitled party at the proper location3. Responsibility to care for the cargo while it is in the carrier’s custody1. Responsibility for correct description of the goodsAny third party buyer may purchase goods by relying on the description of the goods in the B/L (quantity, condition, etc.).The description of the goods on the B/L is usually supplied by the shipper or his agent. (The carrier will not know what is inside a container or carton packed by the shipper). It is however essential that if the carrier knows that the description of the goods supplied by the shipper is not correct (for example that cartons are damaged), the carrier clearly notes the discrepancy（不符，相差） on the B/L or refuses to accept the cargo and issue the B/L.If the carrier does not note the discrepancy on the B/L, the carrier “steps into the shoes” of the shipper and assumes responsibility, on behalf of the shipper, to the buyer of the goods. This means that if there was a dispute between the carrier and the buyer of the goods, the buyer could file a claim against the carrier. The carrier would need to file claim against the shipper but may not be able to prove that the goods were not received as stated in the B/L.2. Responsibility to release the goods to the properly entitled party at the proper locationWhoever presents a duly and properly endorsed B/L at the correct destination is entitled to take delivery of the goods.The carrier receiving a B/L and being satisfied that the proper endorsement is in place, when releasing the goods, is relieved of any responsibility should it later appear that the B/L holder was in fact not the proper receiver.The carrier must of course also ensure that the person who submits the B/L and take delivery of the goods is a representative of the consignee (e.g. an employee or an agent of the company to whom the B/L has been consigned).Release of the cargo without receipt of a properly endorsed B/L compromises the carrier’s responsibility towards the true owner of the goods. This may expose the carrier to unlimited liability（责任）inclusive（包括） of consequential(间接的) damages. In other words, the carrier may be required to compensate（赔偿） the rightful consignee not only for the value of the goods but potentially also for additional costs such as loss of sales profits.If the carrier is in doubt about who the rightful owner of the B/L is, e.g. because there has been a chain of endorsements and the carrier is not familiar with all signatures and stamps of the intermediate consignees, the carrier should in principle contact these parties to check. The carrier may can also contact the shipper and/or the notify（通知） party on the B/L to hear their views.2a. Release at different destinationIf the release of the goods is requested at a destination different from the one mentioned on the B/L, the carrier should first receive the full set of Bs/L (all originals) for the particular shipment.The full set of an issued B/L has an intended destination. Since release is possible against any one of the Bills of Lading in a set, then only by receiving all the issued originals can the carrier assure himself that no other lawful holder of an original B/L can present the B/L at the B/L destination and rightfully claim title to the goods.2b. Release of goods without original B/L or issuance of a new set of BillsIt is a critical situation when the full set of original Bills are lost. By releasing the goods without obtaining a duly endorsed original B/L, the carrier will expose themselves to unlimited liability, incl. consequential damages, in case a rightful holder of the B/L later turns up and expects to receive the cargo. On the other hand, the consignee may in fact be the legal owner of the goods after having paid the shipper and the carrier will be under pressure from the consignee to release the goods as soon as possible.In such a situation, the carrier will typically ask both the shipper and the consignee to confirm that they agree to the issuance of a new set of bills or release of goods without the bills. In addition, the party who has asked for a new set of bills (the shipper or the consignee), or has asked to have the goods released (the consignee), is asked to sign a Letter of Indemnity (LOI) and this must be backed up by a first class bank guarantee which is valid for a minimum of 6 years or whatever the B/L filing period is in that country. The process must be approved and release signed off by appropriate management.It is a commercial decision by the carrier whether they will release the goods on this basis or not.3.Responsibility to care for the cargo while in the carrier’s custodyThe duty of care of the goods is both regulated in law and is based on common sense. If the goods arrive damaged at destination and no note has been made on the B/L regarding the condition of the cargo, it is the carrier’s responsibility.If the carrier wants to claim against the shipper, it is the carrier’s responsibility to prove that the goods were not damaged while in his custody.Bill of Lading – AmendmentWhen a shipper requests an amendment to a B/L which has already been printed and issued, the carrier must make a judgment of the request and decide if the B/L can be amended accordingly.The carrier must ensure that the full set of original Bs/L are returned (if 3 originals were issued, 3 originals should be returned for amendment) and ensure that the description of the goods is still correct.If a shipper requests a completely new set of Bs/L, this is considered an amendment and the full set of originals must be surrendered. If the shipper or consignee is not able to produce the full set of originals, the carrier should not issue a new set. If the customer insists, the carrier must make a judgment of the commercial risk and may decide that a new set can be issued. In such case, the first set of Bs/L will be considered lost.You must ensure to check local procedures for this.Bill of Lading - Cargo DescriptionCargo descriptionThe transport provider cannot physically verify the contents of the cartons and packages received from the shipper. For legal reasons, the description of the goods must therefore always include the wording “Said To Contain” or “S.T.C.” to signify that the transport provider is relying on the description of the goods supplied by the shipper. Example: S.T.C. 1020 cartons of CD players.If the carrier knows that the description of the goods supplied by the shipper is not correct (for example that cartons are damaged), the carrier should note the discrepancy on the B/L or refuse to accept the cargo and issue the B/L.No. of packagesIf cargo is lost during transit, it is the number of units as stated in the “no. of pkgs” field that will be used for calculation of potential compensation to the owner. For this reason, this field should always reflect the smallest number of shipping units. Example 1 (FCL container): “1 x 20’ STD” instead of “500 cartons”. Example 2 (LCL shipment): “5 pallets” instead of “50 cartons”.ClausesThe transport provider should insert the clause “Shipper’s load, stow and count” if the customer is loading the container at his premises.“Shipped onboard” must only be used when the document is issued after vessel sailing. If the customer wants the document issued before vessel sailing, the clause “Received for shipment” is used instead.Most carriers will not insert the clause “Clean onboard” on the Bill. Even for LCL-shipments where they are physically handling the cartons, they cannot check the quality and condition of the merchandise inside the cartons.Clean B/L without notations of damages or shortcomingsThe buyer or the bank (Letter of Credit) sometimes demands a so-called “clean B/L” which means a B/L without any notes of damages or shortcomings at the time of loading. This sometimes creates problems between the carrier and the shipper, who in spite of damage or other discrepancy to the cargo wants the shipping line to incorrectly issue a “Clean B/L” against a letter of indemnity from the shipper or a bank guarantee. Such indemnities are not allowed under the international conventions that governsBs/L and if brought to court will not be upheld. Therefore the carrier should not issue “Clean” Bs/L if this is not the correct cargo description.24-hour manifest rule (U.S. customs)You may have heard about the 24-hour manifest rule established by U.S. Customs and its requirements regarding description of goods - for example that “S.T.C.” is not allowed and that the cargo description must be very specific (i.e. “general merchandise” and other general cargo descriptions are not allowed). For the purpose of transport documentation, you should be aware that the U.S. Customs rules relate to the vessel manifest, not the printed Bill of Lading or Waybill document. The vessel manifest is used for customs purposes. The printed Bill or Waybill is used for legal and commercial purposes.Bill of Lading - Document DateThe date of the B/L must be the date on which it is actually issued, irrespective of the date the cargo was received or loaded, however not earlier than the date the cargo was received or loaded respectively.For a “Shipped on Board” B/L, the date cannot be earlier than the date the cargo was actually loaded on board the first vessel or conveyance mentioned in the document.For a “Received for Shipment” B/L, the date cannot be earlier than the date the cargo was actually received at the place of receipt or load port mentioned in the document.Sometimes, a shipper will request a carrier to issue the B/L with earlier or later dates in order to comply with time restrictions in the shipper’s Letter of Credit. The carrier is not obliged to do so and should not do so. It would be considered an attempt to defraud the buyer.Bill of Lading - Freight paymentThe charges payable at origin (usually by the shipper) are called “prepaid”. The charges payable at destination (usually by the consignee) are called “collect”.In order to secure payment, the carrier will usually not release the original B/L document to the shipper before he has paid all prepaid charges.At destination, the carrier will usually not release the goods until all freight charges are paid (even when a duly endorsed B/L is presented).It is a commercial decision by the carrier whether they wish to grant the shipper and/or consignee credit. If credit has been granted, the carrier will release the goods and expect the freight and other costs to be paid within the agreed time.The shipper is responsible for advising the carrier which charges are prepaid and collect. If the carrier is in doubt whether the consignee will pay for the collect charges, he may check with the consignee before accepting the shipment.In some areas of the world, from where there is a great risk and/or cost for the carrier to ship cargo, the carrier may require that all charges are prepaid.Bill of Lading – FilingAfter collecting the original B/L and releasing the goods, the carrier should stamp the original B/L “accomplished” (or similar).The carrier must then file the original B/L for at least 6 years according to international and domestic regulations. Local legislation may require a longer filing period.Bill of Lading - Why use this document?When buying goods internationally, there is a distance between the buyer and the seller. The exchange of goods and the payment for the goods therefore cannot take place at the same time. The seller wants to ensure that he does not transfer ownership of the goods without receiving payment, and the buyer wants to make sure that he does not pay without getting ownership of the goods that he was expecting.The seller uses the B/L as proof that he has delivered the goods for shipment at the agreed place. The B/L also confirms the quantity and apparent condition of the goods in the B/L.When a B/L is issued (a document of title), the carrier will only release the goods at destination to the party who can present an original B/L that covers the goods. The B/L becomes the “key to the cargo”. When the buyer has paid for the goods, the seller will transfer the original Bs/L to the buyer. If the buyer does not pay for the goods, the seller can keep the original Bs/L and in this way control that the buyer does not receive the goods from the carrier. (In some cases, the buyer will require to receive the originals before paying).In cases where the payment for the goods is facilitated by a bank through a Letter of Credit, the bank at origin may require that they obtain title to the goods in the period between paying the seller and obtaining payment from the buyer or the buyer’s bank. This is why the B/L is sometimes consigned “to order of [bank]”. If it happened that the buyer could not pay for the goods after all, the bank would be able to recover some of their loss by selling the goods.In other cases, the B/L is used because goods are sold during transit and there is a need to have a negotiable/transferable document to cover the shipment. The original consignee will endorse the B/L to the new consignee who can then obtain release of the goods.It is important to note that although the B/L is used to facilitate the payment of goods between seller and buyer, the carrier does NOT take part in the change of ownership of goods. This is only a matter between the seller and the buyer. The carrier follows the rules and obligations as stated in the B/L and contract of carriage (ships and releases goods in accordance herewith).Bill of Lading - the role of Maersk LogisticsIn Maersk Logistics we do not issue carrier Bills of Lading. However, we work with the carriers either on behalf of the clients (when we are acting as agents on behalf of the shipper or the consignee and the customer has agreed freight rates and other terms and conditions directly with the carrier) or as customers (when we are acting as NVOCC and have sub-contracted our shipments to the carrier). Scenario 1: Acting as agent on behalf of a shipper or consigneeWhen acting as agent on behalf of our customers, the carrier B/L evidences a contract of carriage between the carrier and our customer. Maersk Logistics is not a party to the contract under the B/L although we are performing freight forwarding services on behalf of our client.In this scenario, we usually book the cargo with the carrier chosen by our customer, arrange containers to be loaded/consolidated and brought to the carrier’s terminal, co-ordinate the issuance of documents and check the documents issued by the carrier. We may also pay the carrier charges on behalf of our customer and invoice him accordingly. At destination, we may co-ordinate the release and delivery of the container and arrange customs clearance on behalf of our client.Scenario 2: Acting as NVOCCWhen acting as NVOCC, Maersk Logistics is the customer of the carrier. We therefore book our shipments with the carrier, deliver the goods in our name, provide shipper’s instructions, pay freight charges to the carrier and obtain release of the goods at destination based on the B/L which is issued between us and the carrier.Bill of Lading - Difference between B/L and SWB1. In which areas are the B/L and the SWB the same?- They both function as a Receipt for cargo and Evidence of contract of carriage- They both contain details about the shipment such as shipper, consignee, vessel, place of delivery, cargo description and date- They must not be issued with a date different than the true issuance date / onboard date- They are issued by the ocean carrier (VOCC)- They obligate the carrier to ensure correct description of the goods- They obligate the carrier to care for the cargo while in his custody- They obligate the carrier to ensure that he releases the goods to the correctly entitled party at destination2. In which areas are the B/L and the SWB different?- The B/L is a document of title. The Sea Waybill is NOT.- A SWB cannot be consigned “to order”, it must always state a consignee.- The B/L is printed in sets of originals and copies (often 3 originals).A SWB is only printed as copies.-The carrier does not require an original SWB in order to release the goods at destinationBill of Lading - Difference between B/L and HBL1. In which areas are the carrier B/L and the House B/L the same?- They have the same functions: A receipt for cargo, A document of title, Evidence of contract of carriage- They can both be endorsed to another party if the document is consigned “to order” or “to order of [name/company]”- They must not be issued with an onboard date different than the true onboard date- They are both issued in a set of (usually) 3 originals and a reasonable number of copies- They often have the same format and fields- They obligate the issuing party to ensure correct description of the goods- They obligate the issuing party to care for the cargo while in his custody- They obligate the issuing party to ensure that the goods are released to the correctly entitled party at destination2. In which areas are the carrier B/L and the House B/L different?- The HBL is issued by the NVOCC who does not operate vessels.The B/L is issued by a VOCC.- The HBL evidences a contract between the NVOCC and his customer. The B/L evidences acontract between the carrier and his customer.- Maersk Logistics can issue HBL. We cannot issue carrier B/L.。

Bill of Lading 海运提单

Bill of Lading 海运提单A bill of lading is a receipt for goods shipped on board a vessel, signed by the person (or his agent) who contracts to carry them, and stating the conditions in which the goods were delivered to (and received by) the ship. It is not the actual contract, but forms excellent evidence of the terms of the contract. It is a document of title to the goods, enabling the shipper or owner of the goods to endorse title to other parties, sell goods in transit, and present to banks with other documents in seeking payment under documentary credits. Abbreviated generally as B/L, it is the most important document for sea transport.There are different types of bill of lading:（1）Shipped (On Board) B/L and received for shipment B/L已装船提单和备运提单·Shipped B/L is issued by the shipping company after the goods are actually shipped on board the designatedvessel. Since shipped bill of lading provides better guarantee for the consignee to receive the cargo at the destination, the importer will normally require the exporter to produce shipped B/L and most bill of lading forms are preprinted as “Shipped Bill”.·Received for Shipment B/L arises where the word “shipped” does not appear on the bill of lading. It merely confirms that the goods have been handed over to, and are in the custody of the shipowner. The buyer under a CIF contract will not accept such a B/L because, in the absence of the date of shipment, he is in no position to anticipate the arrival of the consignment.（2）Clean B/L and unclean B/L清洁提单和不清洁提单· A clean bill of lading is the one that states that the goods have been “shipped in apparent good order and condition”. It is issued when the goods do not show any defects on their exteriors at the time of loading at the port of shipment. This type is favored by the buyer and the banks for financial settlement purposes.·If defects are found on the exteriors of the goods, or the shipping company does not agree to any of the statements in the B/L, the bill will be marked as “unclean”, “foul” or “… packages in damaged condition”. Unclean B/L is usually unacceptable to the buyer and banks.（3）Straight, blank and order B/L记名、不记名和指示提单·Straight bill of lading has a designated consignee. Under this bill, only the named consignee at the destination is entitled to take delivery of the cargo. As it is not transferable, it is not commonly used in international trade and normally applies to high-value shipments or goods for special purposes.·Blank B/L also called Open B/L or Bearer B/L, means that there is no definite consignee of the goods. There usually appear in the box of consignee words like “To bearer”. Anyone who holds the bill is entitled to the goods the bill represents. No endorsement is needed for the transfer of the blank bill. Due to the exceedingly highrisk involved, this bill is rarely used.·Order B/L is widely used in international trade. It means that the goods are consigned or destined to the order of a named person. In the box of consignee, “To order”, “To order of the shipper”, or “To order of the consignee” is marked. It can be transferred only after endorsement is made. If the B/L is made out “To order of the shipper”, the shipper will endorse the bill. If it is made out “To order of the consignee”, the consignee will endorse the bill to transfer it. A blank endorsement is usually required for a “To order” bill.（4）Direct, transshipment, through bill of lading 直运、转船和联运提单·Transhipment B/L means that the goods need to be transshipped at an intermediate port as there is no direct service between the shipment port and the destination port.·It is sometimes necessary to employ two or more carriers to get the goods to their final destination. In thiscase, usually the first carrier will sign and issue a through bill of lading. The on-carriage may be either by a second vessel or by a different form of transport.（5）Liner B/L, container B/L and combined transport B/L班轮、集装箱和多式联运提单·Liner bill of lading is issued by a liner company for shipment on scheduled port calls through scheduled routes.·Container B/L is becoming more common in use with the development of containerization. It covers the goods from port to port or from inland point of departure to inland point of destination.·Combined transport B/L is issued by combined transport operator that covers the multi-modal transport on a door-to-door basis in one contract of carriage. It is ideal for container movements. It differs from “through B/L” in that combined transport is operated by only one carrier.（6）Long form B/L and short form B/L全式提单和简式提单·Long form B/L is more detailed with shipping contract clause printed on the back of the page.·Short form B/L, as the name implies, is an abbreviated type of document, smaller and not containing the long list of detailed clauses that generally appear on bills of lading. In certain circumstances it may not, therefore, be considered a suitable form of evidence of contract or affreightment.（7）On Deck B/L, stale B/L, ante-dated B/L and advanced B/L舱面提单、过期提单、倒签提单和预签提单·On Deck B/L is issued when the cargo is loaded on the ship’s deck. It applies to goods like livestock, plants, dangerous cargo, or awkwardly-shaped goods that can not fit into the ship’s holds. In this case, the goods are exposed to greater risks and therefore usually specific insurance must be taken out against additional risks.·It is important that the Bill of Lading is available at the port of destination before the goods arrive or, failing this, at the same time. Bills presented to the consignee or buyer or his bank after the goods are due at the port of destination are described as “Stale Bs/L”. As a cargo cannot be collected by the buyer without the Bill of Lading, the late arrival of this all-important document may have undesirable consequences such as warehouse rent, etc. and therefore should be avoided. Sometimes especially in the case of short sea voyages, it is necessary to add a clause of “Stale B/L is acceptable”.·Ante-dated B/L means when the actual shipment date is later than that stipulated in the L/C, the carrier sometimes, at the shipper’s request, issues a B/L with a date of signature that suits the requirement so as to avoid non-acceptance by the bank. Due to the risk of the goods being rejected by the buyer arising from the issuance of such a bill, it is advisable to avoid this mal practice even when it seems necessary in certain circumstances.·Advanced B/L is issued when the expiry date of the L/C is due but the exporter hasn’t yet got the goods ready for shipment. The purpose of issuing such a bill is to negotiate payment with the bank in time within the validity of the L/C. it is also regarded as unlawful and risky and should be avoided.Still there are some other types of B/L such as Groupage B/L which covers a number of consignments from different shippers, and House B/L issued by a freight forwarder to each individual shipper, and so on. House B/L is issued By the freight forwarder before he gets one groupage B/L from the shipowner.All the above mentioned bills are not independent of each other. Several types may be combined into one like “Clean on board, to order, blank endorsed B/L”. A received for shipment bill may also be a straight and clean bill. Bills of lading are made out in sets, consisting of a number of originals (usually three) and a number of copies and marked” and “copy” respectively. Only the originals signed by the carrier enable the consignee totake delivery of the goods. The copies are just for reference.Types of Risks, Losses and Expenses Covered（1）Two types of risks are covered by ocean marine insurance:One is the perils of the sea, including both natural calamities and unexpected accidents. Natural calamities include heavy weather, lightening, Tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption and so on. Accidents refer to fire, explosion, vessel being stranded, grounded, sunk or capsized, collision or contact of vessel with any external object other than water, etc.The other type of risks is external (extraneous) risks including general external risks and special external risks. General external risks include theft and pilferage, contamination, leakage, breakage, sweating and/or heating, taint of odor, rusting, hook damage, fresh and/or rain water damage, short-delivery and non-delivery, shortage in weight, clashing and so on. Special risks include war, strike, failure to deliver due to some special laws or regulations.（2）Two types of losses are covered by marine cargo insurance. One is total loss and the other partial loss.Total loss is divided into actual total loss and constructive total loss. Actual total loss means the complete loss of the insured cargo in value.A constructive total loss occurs when the cost of salvaging the shipment would be more than the salvaged value of the merchandise. The shipment insured is reasonably abandoned as any further efforts at salvage would be fruitless. Most insurance policies provide for the payment of a total loss up to the insured amount.Partial loss means the loss of part of the insured cargo. It can be divided into generalaverage and particular average:General average is based upon a relationship between the shipowner and all the shippers who have cargo aboard the same vessel on a particular voyage. All these parties are bound together in the “adventure”. Sometimes, when the whole ship was threatened by a peril of the sea or some other hazard, in order to save he ship and some of the cargo or vessel have to be sacrificed, then an act of general average would be declared. According to maritime law, those interests whose property was saved must contribute proportionally to cover the losses of the one whose property was voluntarily sacrificed.·Particular average means a partial loss suffered by part of the cargo. It occurs when a storm or fire damages part of the shipper’s cargo and no one else’s cargo has to be sacrificed to save the voyage. The cargo owner whose goods were damaged or lost should refer to his insurance company, provided hispolicy covers the specific type of loss suffered.（3）Ocean cargo insurance also covers the expenses incurred to avoid or reduce the damage to or loss of the subject matter insured. There are mainly two types of expenses. One is sue and labor expenses paid by the assured or his agent. The other is salvage charge paid by the party other than the insurer and /or the insured.Main Types of Insurance 主要的保险种类There are mainly two types of insurance coverage, basic coverage and additional coverage. Basic coverage mainly includes FPA, WPA and All Risks. Additional coverage includes general additional coverage and special additional coverage.（1）FPA (Free from Particular Average) is alimited form of cargo insurance cover under which no partial loss or damage is recoverable. It only provides coverage for total losses and general average emerging from the actual “marine perils” like vessel being stranded, grounded or sunk.（2）WPA (With Particular average) is a wider cover than FPA. It provides extensive cover against all loss or damage due to marine perils throughout the duration of the policy, including partial loss or damage which may be attributed to natural calamities like heavy weather.（3）All Risks is the most comprehensive of the three basic coverages under which the insurer is responsible for all total or partial loss of, or damage to the goods insured either arising from sea perils or general external causes. However, it does not cover loss, damage or expense caused by delay, inherentvice or nature of the goods insured, or special external risks of war, strike, etc.（4）General additional risks include TPND (Theft, Pilferage and Non-delivery), Fresh and/or Rain Water Damage, Risk of Shortage, Risk of Intermixture and Contamination, Risk of Leakage, Risk of Clash and Breakage, Risk of Odor, Damage caused by Heating and/or Sweating, Hook Damage, Risk of Rust, etc. These additional risks can not be covered independently and should go with FPA or WPA and are included in All Risks coverage.（5）Special additional risks include War Risk, Strikes Risk(SRCC, Strikes, Riots & Civil Commotions), Failure to Deliver Risk, Import Duty Risk, On Deck Risk, Rejection Risk, etc., among which war risk and strikes risk are more common. These additional coverages are usually taken out together with FPA, WPA and All risks.To choose an insurance coverage that is both economical and effective, the exporter or the importer should be aware of the possible losses to be expected of a particular consignment. Different items have different natures and may apply to different insurance types. For example, cargo like iron ore faces little risk of partial loss, so FPA will be sufficient. Most manufactured goods are covered against All Risks as they are prone to damage caused by sea perils or external risks. It is important that the Bill of Lading is available at the port of destination before the goods arrive or, failing this, at the same time. Bills presented to the consignee or buyer or his bank after the goods are due at the port of destination are described as “Stale Bs/L”. As a cargo cannot be collected by the buyer without the Bill of Lading, the late arrival of this all-important document may have undesirable consequences such aswarehouse rent, etc. and therefore should be avoided. Sometimes especially in the case of short sea voyages, it is necessary to add a clause of “Stale B/L is acceptable”.> shipping advice -- to importer ].

• 按11栏的大写件数填列。 • 从第10栏至第16栏各项目的内容和资料系由发货人提供。承运人为了免责，所以在本栏的左侧规定：“Particulars Furnished by Merchants”(各项目系由货主提供)，其意思是承运人对此不负责任。

英文海运提单样本及中文解释[1]1

海运提单主要项目填制说明如下：1、托运人（Shipper）。

即与承运人签订运输契约，委托运输的货主，即发货人。

在信用证支付方式下，一般以受益人为托运人；托收方式以托收的委托人为托运人。

另外，根据《UCP500》第31条规定：除非信用证另有规定，银行将接受表明以信用证受益人以外的第三者为发货人的运输单据。

2、收货人（Consignee）。

收货人要按合同和信用证的规定来填写。

一般的填法有下列几种：（1）记名式：在收货人一栏直接填写上指定的公司或企业名称。

该种提单不能背书转让，必须由收货人栏内指定的人提货或收货人转让。

（2）不记名式：即在收货人栏留空不填，或填“To Bearer”（交来人/持票人）。

这种方式承运人交货凭提单的持有人，只要持有提单就能提货。

（3）指示式：指示式的收货人又分为不记名指示和记名指示两种。

不记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Bearer”，又称空白抬头。

该种提单，发货人必须在提单背面背书，才能转让。

背书又分为记名背书和不记名背书（空白背书）两种。

前者是指在提单背面填上“Deliver to ×××”“Endor sed to ×××”，然后由发货人签章；后者是发货人在背面不做任何说明只签章即可。

记名背书后，其货权归该记名人所有，而且该记名人不可以再背书转让给另外的人。

不记名背书，货权即归提单的持有人。

记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Order of Shipper”，此时，发货人必须在寄单前在提单后背书；另外还有凭开证申请人指示即L/C中规定“To Order of Applicant”，在收货人栏就填““To Order of ×××Co”；凭开证行指示，即L/C中规定“To Order of Issuing Bank”，则填“To Order of ×××Bank”。

海运提单详解

电放提单telex release
字面意思为电报放货。正常的流程发货人在起运港交换已背书的三正三副提单给船东之后，船东发电放放货通知给目的港，指示目的港可以释放货权给提单上收货人。
Seaway bill是什么提单？可以控制货权吗？
SWB不是物权凭证，不能转让。一旦签发SWB货权将不属于shipper，无法控制货权。
提单的分类
按是否装船分为已装船提单（已开船ON BOARD后签发on board or shipped b/l）和备运提单(Recdived for shipment B/L)
根据货物表明状况有无不能批注分为清洁提单和不清洁提单。（出具正本之后有修正的提单和备注有货损的提单）
根据收货人抬头分为记名提单Straight B/L（Consignee为特定的人或公司，一般用于展览品，援外物资等,这种提单不能流通不能背书转让）；不记名提单Bearer B/L（这种提单不用背书就能转让但是因为谁有提单谁就能提货），指示提单（consignee为TO ORDER 或to order of XXXbank…）

提单持有人可据以提取货物，也可凭此向银行押汇，还可在载货船舶到达目的港交货之前进行转让；是承运人与托运人之间运输合同的证明。

商业发票（COMMERCIAL INVOICE）是出口方向进口方开列发货价目清单，是买卖双方记账的依据，也是进出口报关交税的总说明。

商业发票是一笔业务的全面反映，内容包括商品的名称、规格、价格、数量、金额、包装等，同时也是进口商办理进口报关不可缺少的文件，因此商业发票是全套出口单据的核心，在单据制作过程中，其余单据均需参照商业发票缮制。

信用证（Letter of Credit，L/C），是指开证银行应申请人的要求并按其指示向第三方开立的载有一定金额的，在一定的期限内凭符合规定的单据付款的书面保证文件。

信用证是国际贸易中最主要、最常用的支付方式。

信用证中常见的海关发票名称：(1)Customs Invoice(2)Appropriate Certified Customs Invoice(3)Invoice and Combined Certificate of Value and Origin(4)Certified Invoice in accordance with **(进口国名称）Customs Regulations(5)Signed Certificate of Value and Origin in Appropriate Form信用证订舱单据（订舱委托书、发票、装箱单）报关单据配舱回单投保单（报关单、发票、装箱单）（投保单）托运订舱程序图解最新文件仅供参考已改成word 文本。
