The Released Bill of Lading is a fundamental document in international maritime trade, governed by Belgian law and international conventions. It is used when goods have been delivered to the legitimate recipient or when the original bill of lading has been properly surrendered, with appropriate release markings added to the document. The Released Bill of Lading contains essential shipping information including carrier and vessel details, cargo specifications, parties involved, and terms of carriage, all compliant with Belgian Maritime Code and the Hague-Visby Rules. This document is particularly important for maintaining proper documentation chains in international trade, facilitating customs clearance, and ensuring legal transfer of cargo ownership. It serves as evidence that the carrier has fulfilled its delivery obligations and provides protection for all parties involved in the maritime transaction.
