An ocean bill of lading is a crucial legal document issued by a shipping carrier to acknowledge the receipt of goods, details of the shipment, and terms of the contract between the shipper and carrier. Ocean bill of lading services serve as evidence of ownership and are required for cargo pickup, delivery, and customs clearance.
The carrier or its agent typically issues the ocean bill of lading (BOL) once the goods are received and ready to be shipped.
There are various types, including straight (non-negotiable), order (negotiable), and sea waybill (non-negotiable document serving as a receipt for the goods).
A bill of lading (BOL) is a negotiable document that will allow the transfer of ownership of goods, whereas a sea waybill is non-negotiable and doesn't confer ownership rights. A bill of lading requires presentation for goods delivery, while a sea waybill does not.
Ocean bill of lading services handle various tasks, including data entry, document preparation, verification, validation, tracking, and management of Ocean BOLs, ensuring accuracy and compliance with shipping regulations.
Our team is well-versed in global shipping regulations and stays updated with industry standards, ensuring that all BOL documentation complies with international shipping requirements.
Details like the names and addresses of the shipper, consignee, and carrier, a description of the goods, quantity, weight, packaging, port of loading, destination, freight charges, and terms of shipment are usually included.
