The Way Bill of Lading is essential in modern maritime transport operations, particularly under Danish jurisdiction where it's governed by the Danish Merchant Shipping Act and related maritime regulations. This document type is specifically used when the negotiability of a traditional Bill of Lading is not required, typically in situations with a known and predetermined consignee. The Way Bill of Lading contains crucial information including carrier and shipper details, cargo description, terms of carriage, and ports of loading and discharge. It serves dual purposes as both a contract of carriage and a receipt for goods, though unlike a traditional Bill of Lading, it cannot be used to transfer title of goods. This document is particularly relevant in containerized shipping and direct sales transactions where rapid release of cargo at destination is prioritized.
