海运提单样本

海运提单 BILL OF LADING 海运提单主要项目填制说明如下：

1、托运人（Shipper）。即与承运人签订运输契约，委托运输的货主，即发货人。在信用证支付方式下，一般以受益人为托运人；托收方式以托收的委托人为托运人。另外，根据《UCP500》第31条规定：除非信用证另有规定，银行将接受表明以信用证受益人以外的第三者为发货人的运输单据。 2、收货人（Consignee）。收货人要按合同和信用证的规定来填写。一般的填法有下列几种： （1）记名式：在收货人一栏直接填写上指定的公 司或企业名称。该种提单不能背书转让，必须由收货人栏内指定的人提货或收货人转让。 （2）不记名式：即在收货人栏留空不填，或填“To Bearer”（交来人/持票人）。这种方式承运人交货凭提单的持有人，只要持有提单就能提货。 （3）指示式：指示式的收货人又分为不记名指示 和记名指示两种。 不记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Bearer”，又称空白抬头。该种提单，发货人必须在提单背面背书，才能转让。背书又分为记名背书和不记名背书（空白背书）两种。前者是指在提单背面填上“Deliver to ×××”“Endorsed to ×××”，然后由发货人签章；后者是发货人在背面不做任何说明只

签章即可。记名背书后，其货权归该记名人所有，而 且该记名人不可以再背书转让给另外的人。不记名背书，货权即归提单的持有人。 记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Order of Shipper”，此时，发货人必须在寄单前在提单后背书；另外还有凭开证申请人指示即L/C中规定“To Order of Applicant”，在收货人栏就填““To Order of ××× Co”； 凭开证行指示，即L/C中规定“To Order of Issuing Bank”，则填“To Order of ×××Bank”。 在实际业务中，L/C项下提单多使用指示式。托收 方式，也普遍使用不记名指示式。若作成代收行指示式，事先要征得代收行同意。因为根据URC522中第10 条ａ款规定：除非先征得银行同意，贷物不应直接运 交银行，亦不应以银行或银行的提定人为收货人。如 未经银行事先同意，贷物直接运交银行，或以银行的 指定人为收货人，然后由银行付款或承兑后将货物交 给付款人时，该银行并无义务提取货物，货物的风险 和责任由发货人承担。 3．被通知人（Ｎotify Party）。原则上该栏一定 要按信用证的规定填写。被通知人即收货人的代理人

海运提单样本解析

详细说明缮制方法： 1.Shipper，托运人。托运人也称发货人(Consignor)，是指委托运输的当事人。如信用证无特殊规定，应以受益人为托运人。如果受益人是中间商，货物是从产地直接装运的，这时也可以实际卖方为发货人，因为按UCP500规定，如信用 2.Consignee，收货人。这是提单的抬头，是银行审核的重点项目。应与托运单中“收货人”的填写完全一致，并符合信用证的规定。 2.Consignee，收货人。这是提单的抬头，是银行审核的重点项目。应与托运单中“收货人”的填写完全一致，并符合信用证的规定。 例1.来证要求Full set of B/L Consigned to ABC Co.，则提单收货人一栏中填Consigned to ABC Co.。 例2.来证要求 B/L issued to order of Applicant，查Applicant为Big A Co.，则提单收货人一栏中填to order of Big A Co.。 例3.来证要求Full set of B/L made out to our order，查开证行名称为Small B Bank，则提单收货人一栏中填to order of Small B Bank, 或填to Small B Bank’s order。证无特殊规定，银行将接受以第三者为发货人的提单。不过此时必须考虑各方面是否可行的问题。 收货人栏的填写必须与信用证要求完全一致。任何粗心大意和贪图省事的填法都可能是单证不符点。不符点的例：B/L issued to the order of ABC Co. Ltd. Whereas L/C required“ to ABC Co. Ltd.”。 (提单开成凭ABC公司指定人指示，而信用证要求“凭ABC公司指示)。抬头为特定的公司与这一公司的指定人是完全不同的，前者只有这一特定的公司可以提货，提单不能转让，后者提单经此公司背书便可以转让。又如，假设信用证上规定的地名是简称，而提单上写的是全称，也是不符点。

海运提单样本及中文解释

海运提单样本及中文解释 海运提单 海运提单主要项目填制说明如下: 1、托运人（Shipper）。即与承运人签订运输契约，委托运输的货主，即发货人。在信用证

支付方式下，一般以受益人为托运人；托收方式以托收的委托人为托运人。另外，根据《UCP500》第31条规定：除非信用证另有规定，银行将接受表明以信用证受益人以外的第三者为发货人的运输单据。 2、收货人（Consignee）。收货人要按合同和信用证的规定来填写。一般的填法有下列几种： （1）记名式：在收货人一栏直接填写上指定的公司或企业名称。该种提单不能背书转让，必须由收货人栏内指定的人提货或收货人转让。 （2）不记名式：即在收货人栏留空不填，或填“To Bearer”（交来人/持票人）。这种方式承运人交货凭提单的持有人，只要持有提单就能提货。 （3）指示式：指示式的收货人又分为不记名指示和记名指示两种。 不记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Bearer”，又称空白抬头。该种提单，发货人必须在提单背面背书，才能转让。背书又分为记名背书和不记名背书（空白背书）两种。前者是指在提单背面填上“Deliver to ×××”“Endorsed to ×××”，然后由发货人签章；后者是发货人在背面不做任何说明只签章即可。记名背书后，其货权归该记名人所有，而且该记名人不可以再背书转让给另外的人。不记名背书，货权即归提单的持有人。 记名指示，是在收货人一栏填“To Order of Shipper”，此时，发货人必须在寄单前在提单后背书；另外还有凭开证申请人指示即L/C中规定“To Order of Applicant”，在收货人栏就填““To Order of ××× Co”； 凭开证行指示，即L/C中规定“To Order of Issuing Bank”，则填“To Order of ×××Bank”。 在实际业务中，L/C项下提单多使用指示式。托收方式，也普遍使用不记名指示式。若作成代收行指示式，事先要征得代收行同意。因为根据URC522中第10条ａ款规定：除非先征得银行同意，贷物不应直接运交银行，亦不应以银行或银行的提定人为收货人。如未经银行事先同意，贷物直接运交银行，或以银行的指定人为收货人，然后由银行付款或承兑后将货物交给付款人时，该银行并无义务提取货物，货物的风险和责任由发货人承担。 3．被通知人（Ｎotify Party）。原则上该栏一定要按信用证的规定填写。被通知人即收货人的代理人或提货人，货到目的港后承运人凭该栏提供的内容通知其办理提货，因此，提单的被通知人一定要有详细的名称和地址，供承运人或目的港及时通知其提货。若L/C中未规定明确地址，为保持单证一致，可在正本提单中不列明，但要在副本提单上写明被通知人的详细地址。托收方式下的被通知人一般填托收的付款人。 4.船名（Ocean Vessel）即由承运人配载的装货的船名，班轮运输多加注航次（Voy.No.）。 5.装运港（Port of Loading）。填实际装运货物的港名。L/C项下一定要符合L/C的规定和要求。如果L/C规定为“中国港口”（Chinese Port）此时不能照抄，而要按装运的我国某一港口实际名称填。 6、卸货港（Port of Discharge）。原则上，L/C项下提单卸货港一定要按L/C规定办理。
