Pengsou Logistics international freight forwarding bill of lading business

In international logistics, the House Bill of Lading (HBL) serves as a vital document, and Pengsou Logistics Company maintains professional and standardized operational procedures in this field.

An HBL (Letter of Credit) is a bill of lading issued by an international freight forwarder acting as the carrier to sign a cargo transportation contract with the shipper. As a professional freight forwarding company, Pengsou Logistics is the authorized issuer of HBLs, with the bill of lading naturally bearing Pengsou Logistics 'name. However, issuing HBLs is not without legal obligations. According to regulations, Non-Vessel Operators (NVOCCs) issuing HBLs must register with relevant authorities, such as the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) which requires registration. Additionally, legitimate issuers must hold the "Non-Vessel Operator Business Operation Qualification Registration Certificate" issued by the Ministry of Transport, and the bill of lading's name must exactly match the registered name. Pengsou Logistics strictly complies with these regulations to ensure the legality and compliance of its issued HBLs, thereby safeguarding clients' rights.

When issuing a bill of lading, Pengsou Logistics International Freight Forwarding Company or its authorized agent will explicitly state the company's status as a contractual carrier or multimodal transport operator. This is not only a regulatory requirement but also a demonstration of responsibility to clients, ensuring they clearly understand the responsible party during the transportation process.

Pengsou Logistics maintains a rigorous and systematic HBL issuance process. The process begins with the shipper submitting a consignment note detailing cargo specifications and transportation requirements. Leveraging its professional expertise and distribution channels, the company then secures shipping space through the shipping agent to allocate suitable cargo positions. Upon successful loading, the shipping agent issues the Master Bill of Lading (MBL) to Pengsou Logistics. Finally, Pengsou Logistics issues the Freight Forwarder Bill of Lading (HBL) to the actual shipper based on the MBL.

The HBL possesses specific characteristics as a negotiable instrument and property right certificate. This means cargo ownership can be transferred through HBL transfer. However, it should be noted that the consignee cannot directly collect goods from the shipping company using the HBL. In Pengsou Logistics' operational process, the consignee must first obtain an MBL or other delivery certificate from Pengsou Logistics before successfully retrieving the goods.

In the international freight forwarding bill of lading business, Pengsou Logistics Company strictly follows the relevant regulations, provides customers with high-quality services with professional and standardized processes, ensures the safety and efficiency of cargo transportation, and establishes a good reputation in the international logistics market.
