The Original Ocean Bill of Lading is a fundamental document in maritime trade, essential for international shipping transactions under Australian jurisdiction. It is required whenever goods are transported by sea, particularly in international trade where formal documentation of cargo ownership and transfer is crucial. The document must comply with the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1991 (Cth) and related Australian legislation, while also adhering to international maritime conventions. It contains detailed information about the shipped goods, parties involved, vessel details, and terms of carriage. This document is particularly important in letter of credit transactions and serves as a negotiable instrument that can transfer the ownership of goods while in transit.
