Transportation doc ments

Transportation documents are usually attached to commercial invoices as a proof of shipment which also enables the buyers to receive the goods. Transportation documents include bills of lading, air waybills, railway bills, road carriage bills and others depending on the mode of transportation used.

Since sea and river shipments are considered most economical, they are most often used and bills of lading are thus most popular transportation documents.

Bills of lading usually contain the following details: a Name of consignor

• Name of consignee

• Name of vessel

• Shipping date

• Weight

» Measurement

• Marking

• Number of cases

• Contents of the cases

Sometimes, when the packing is bad or the cases are damaged, the master of the ship makes a certain note of it on the bill. It makes the bill dirty then. If no notes are made on the bill it is clean. Usually the contracts say that only clean bills of lading can be attached to the commercial invoices and thus considered a proof of shipment.
