The Forwarder's Bill of Lading is a crucial document in international trade and logistics, particularly under Danish jurisdiction where it's governed by the Danish Merchant Shipping Act and relevant EU regulations. This document is used when a freight forwarder acts as a carrier, taking responsibility for goods throughout the entire transport chain, whether by sea, land, or air. It serves three essential functions: confirming receipt of goods, evidencing the contract of carriage, and acting as a document of title that can be used in trade finance. The document is particularly relevant for multimodal transportation scenarios where goods move through different transport modes under a single contract. Its format and content must comply with both Danish legal requirements and international standards, making it acceptable for international trade transactions and letter of credit operations.
