A WORD FROM ALL WORLD SHIPPING

2,560 AWS Agents In 158 Countries

 

PROPER RELEASE OF OCEAN SHIPMENTS

 

Dear AWS Agent, 

 

We want to highlight that on the odd occasion when an agent has released a shipment without securing the Bills of Lading, this puts them and/or the origin agent at liability for the value of the Cargo. 

 

We will not go into the reasons this has occurred but we will advise how we see the correct procedure. This starts in accepting and understanding the House Bill of Lading holds as much rights as the Master Bill of Lading. Also it is strongly suggested that the HBL and MBL mirror each other in terms of payment and release. Failing this confusion will occur and the Origin Agent issuing the bills will remain liable.

 

Whoever is routing the shipment, it does not allow that agent to act or ask the other agent to act in a way that puts his fellow agent in a possible liable suit with the actual Shipper.  In all cases, unless you have written instructions from the origin agent, you must NOT release without securing the original bill of lading (master or house), endorsed by the consignee.  It is also vital that in all instances you instruct your agent to communicate your requirements to the Destination Ocean Carrier so that the cargo is not erroneously released. As for the written instruction, it must clearly state that express release is authorized but also request a copy of the endorsed bill of lading from the origin agent.

 

In all the court cases we have seen, the origin agent has been held liable for the value of the cargo due to the erroneous actions of the destination agent.  WCA and AWS accept no argument or excuse for release without the original endorsed BL or explicit, written permission from the agent.  Absent the BL or the written instructions, the destination agent is responsible to the origin agent for the damages.

 

We look forward to seeing you Abu Dhabi in March!

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Ross Stemmler
