The Maritime Bill of Lading is essential for international sea freight transportation and trade operations under New Zealand jurisdiction. This document is required whenever goods are transported by sea, serving three critical functions: acknowledging receipt of cargo by the carrier, evidencing the contract of carriage, and acting as a document of title that can be used to claim or transfer ownership of the goods. It must comply with New Zealand's Maritime Transport Act 1994, the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, and relevant international conventions. The document includes detailed information about the parties involved, cargo specifications, vessel details, and terms of carriage. It is particularly important in international trade finance, where it often serves as a key document for letter of credit transactions.
