Bills of Lading: A Guide to Good Practice – Fourth Edition

This guide to Bills of Lading looks at the problems and practical issues common to their everyday use. It explains how to avoid disputes and challenges arising from improper usage and contains both practical guidance and theory selection that shows the legal foundations of the advice given.

The text also includes copies of relevant international conventions, an annotated copy of the BIMCO Congenbill and the latest set of recommended standard letters.

The fourth edition has been updated to reflect the useful confirmation from the courts in The Elin that deck cargo clauses can be effective to allow a carrier to contract out of liability for carriage of deck cargo.
