The Transfer Bill of Lading is a crucial document in international maritime trade, particularly within Indonesian jurisdiction where it operates under the Commercial Code (KUHD) and Law No. 17 of 2008 on Shipping. This document is used when goods need to be sold or ownership needs to be transferred while the cargo is in transit. A Transfer Bill of Lading serves three essential functions: it acts as a receipt confirming the carrier's acceptance of goods, provides evidence of the contract of carriage, and serves as a negotiable document of title. It contains specific information including vessel details, cargo description, parties involved, and terms of shipment. The document's transferable nature makes it particularly valuable in international trade financing, allowing banks to hold it as collateral and enabling traders to sell goods while they are still at sea.
