(iv) Examination of bill of lading → shipping agent to handle the procedure of transferring heavy containers
(D) Examination of bill of lading → shipowner's confirmation of charges → advance loan of purchase and payment union → payment of all charges → signing of bill of lading
I. What is the bill of lading
1, the bill of lading refers to a contract for the carriage of goods by sea and goods by the carrier to take over or loading, as well as the carrier to ensure the delivery of goods according to the document. It is the consignee of proof of goods.
2, bill of lading content:
① ship name voyage
② bill of lading number
③ Carrier's name
④ Shipper
⑤ Consignee
⑥ Notifier
⑦ Port of loading, port of discharge, port of transhipment
⑧ Name, mark, packaging, number of pieces, weight, volume of goods
⑧ Name, marking, packaging, number of pieces, weight, volume of goods ⑨ Payment terms for freight
⑩ bill of lading date of issue, place, number of copies
*** The most important is the signature or seal of the carrier or its authorised person.
The most important thing is the signature or seal of the carrier or its authorised person.
Second, the bill of lading
1, check, change the bill of lading must be designated by the shipowner before the time for processing, so as to avoid unnecessary costs to change the bill.
2, the issuance of bills of lading or electric release, you need to go to the shipowner or the designated shipping agency, at the same time must be ready to the eighth and the relevant letter of guarantee, as well as the bank has paid the cost of each item of the payment of the water bill (the issuance of a letter of guarantee in advance of borrowing the purchase and payment of remittance before the payment of sea freight USD). At the same time, you can also use the water bill to issue an invoice for the paid expenses, and submit it to the financial account.
Third, the receipt, electricity release, and the payment of shipping charges.
Third, receive a single, electric discharge, SEAWAYBILL
1, first of all, should be timely to go to the customs broker will be released to send after the seal of the dock to retrieve the eighth link.
2, with the fourth link to the shipping agency to pay the document fee, if prepaid, when the owner of the freight has been paid with the water bill (the city of the original, non-city can be a copy of the freight forwarding letter of guarantee) and the fourth link to open the freight invoice.
3, the bill of lading (refers to lead MASTER B / C) ① bill of lading is to take the eighth link and the invoice of documentation fees, freight invoices (business link) to the shipping agent to issue a bill of lading ② If the bill of lading content and the eighth link on the information is different or the bill of lading to show some special content (such as B / L shows non-wooden packaging, ALSO NOTFY CLEAN BOARD) and the ship's certificate and so on) need to allow the owner to mention the original bond on behalf of and let the shipowner to confirm consent, plus the forwarder's letter of guarantee in order to sign the bill of lading. ③ If the owner of the cargo allowed to sign the bill of lading provided by the bond format for the foreign representative of the prescribed format, and must be confirmed by the shipowner agrees to add the forwarder's letter of guarantee. Note: the time to receive the bill of lading should wait for the ship to open, the first mate receipt (the seventh) by the shipowner back to the shipping agency after verification of the shipping agency will issue a bill of lading, generally wait for the ship to open half a day later, but if the shipowner can issue a bill of lading, you can issue a single change in the ship after the opening of the letter of guarantee as long as the owner of the goods on the line.
4、Electric release
In the case of goods loaded on board, the shipping company issued a bill of lading, the consignee must surrender a properly endorsed (duly endorsed) the original bill of lading (in the change of port of discharge or in other special circumstances, usually should be surrendered a full set of the original bill of lading) (Note: this is the bill of lading as a payment of the nature of the securities, that is, bill of lading on the request of the realisation of the right of the lading must be to the bill of lading for the requisite), and should also be paid off! All payable expenses, and then only in the port of discharge to obtain a bill of lading (DeliveryOrder, D / O), to withdraw the goods.
When the consignee can not get the bill of lading in time, it is usually the consignee with the guarantee for the bill of lading after picking up the goods (Note: Please distinguish between the shipping practice is usually used in the concept of "letter of guarantee" and the concept of "guarantee" in the law of guarantee). However, the shipping company can not guarantee against a third party (holding the bill of lading of the real consignee), because the bill of lading is the carrier to ensure the delivery of goods on the basis of the document. The terms set forth in the bill of lading to deliver the goods to the named person, or to deliver the goods in accordance with the instructions of the person giving them, or to deliver the goods to the holder of the bill of lading, constitute the carrier's warranty under which the goods are to be delivered.?
In order to enable the consignee can not obtain the bill of lading in a timely manner, and the shipping company is not willing to guarantee the delivery of goods in a timely manner to withdraw the goods, in practice, the practice of "electric release". People usually say "electric release" is a narrow concept, that is, the shipper (consignor) will be loaded on board the ship will be the carrier (or its agent) issued by the carrier (or its agent) of the full set of original bills of lading back to the carrier (or its agent), while the designated consignee (non-nominal bill of lading); carrier authorization (usually by telex, telegraph and other communications) in the unloading of the goods. The carrier authorises (usually by telex, telegram or other means of communication) its agent at the port of discharge to deliver the goods without the consignee producing an original bill of lading (which has been withdrawn).
Therefore, the legal principle of "electric release" is: in the case of the carrier to issue a bill of lading, when the bill of lading can be recovered to deliver the goods (or bill of lading). Since the carrier to recover the bill of lading is in the delivery of goods (port of discharge) other than the place (usually in the port of loading), as a special case, so the recovery of a full set of the original bill of lading. However, at present, the relevant international conventions, national laws (such as China's maritime law) and regulations do not have the definition of "electric release".
Electric release should be provided by the shipper in writing or letter of guarantee, in the case of the original bill of lading has been issued, it should be recovered a full set of the original bill of lading before doing electric release.
5、SEAWAYBILL：Basically equivalent to electric release, but not every port of destination is allowed to do SEAWAYBILL. (Generally no cost) * with the eighth link, the invoice of the document fee, shipping invoice (attachment) in addition to the original letter of guarantee to the owner of the ship for the delivery of electric discharge fee to take the shipowner's electric discharge notice.
Fourth, call for payment: 1: ticket settlement: ticket settlement customers should comply with the principle of seeing the money to release the single
2: Monthly settlement: Monthly settlement customers can directly release the single to the customer after sailing."
