The Ocean Freight Bill of Lading is a crucial document in international maritime trade, regulated under U.S. federal law and international conventions. It is required whenever goods are transported by sea, serving three primary functions: acknowledging receipt of cargo, evidencing the contract of carriage, and acting as a document of title. The document must comply with COGSA requirements and typically includes detailed cargo descriptions, parties involved, vessel information, and terms of carriage. An Ocean Freight Bill of Lading is essential for customs clearance, payment processing, and transfer of ownership of the goods.
