The Memo Bill of Lading is a vital document in international maritime trade, particularly under Dutch jurisdiction. It serves as both a receipt for cargo and evidence of the contract of carriage, though unlike a regular Bill of Lading, it is non-negotiable. This document type is especially useful in situations where the consignee is known in advance and there is no need for the document to be traded or transferred. The Memo Bill of Lading includes essential information such as shipper and consignee details, cargo description, vessel information, and terms of carriage. It must comply with Dutch maritime law, including provisions in the Dutch Civil Code and international conventions ratified by the Netherlands. The document is commonly used in direct shipments, intra-company transfers, and situations where letter of credit payments are not required.
