  • Several Common Shipping Methods and Their Differences
  • TELEX RELEASED:

    That is to say, the abbreviation for telegraphic release of goods. It is to send the bill of lading information to the destination port shipping company in the form of electronic messages or electronic information. The consignee can exchange the bill of lading with the electronic release seal and the electronic release guarantee for delivery;

    It means directly letting the shipping company notify the destination port agent to release the goods, without the need for the original bill of lading. As long as you prove that you are the consignee and the consignee, you can pick up the goods.

    The advantages are convenience, speed, and safety (avoiding the risk of losing the bill of lading).

    The disadvantage is that the shipper cannot control the ownership of the goods.

    OCEAN BILL (B/L ocean bill of lading):

    Original bill of lading issued by the shipping company; It is a property right certificate, on which the consignee extracts the goods. It can be endorsed and transferred, and is an important document; The SHIPPER will receive the original bill of lading from the freight forwarder, scan it and send it to CNEE for payment. The SHIPPER will then send the entire set of bills of lading by express mail to CNEE, who will exchange the original bill of lading for the bill of lading to pick up the goods; More ocean bills of lading are used;

    The advantage is that it is convenient for the buyer to pick up the goods immediately, simplifies procedures, and saves costs;

    SWB (Sea Waybill):

    Once the SWB is released, the ownership of the goods is transferred from the shipper to CNEE, which means CNEE can directly pick up the goods. SWB does not require the original documents or electronic release fees for picking up the goods. This form of release can be adopted for trusted companies;

    The advantage lies in fast issuance, fast delivery, convenience, and speed, which are commonly used for: 1 After receiving the full payment, the overseas waybill can be issued. 2. For multinational companies, the subsidiary in China is specifically responsible for purchasing for the overseas parent company. In order to facilitate delivery, the overseas waybill can be issued quickly.

    The disadvantage is that it is generally not possible to hold the goods.

    Destination port release:

    The meaning of releasing goods; This method of placing orders is rarely used and may be used in the following special situations:

    If the bill of lading is lost, the shipper shall write a letter of guarantee to the shipping company or agent to release the bill of lading to the consignee;

    The bill of lading was issued late, but the goods arrived. In order to pick up the goods earlier, a letter of guarantee can also be used to instruct the release of the goods.

    Unless there are special circumstances, this method is generally not used;

    Summary of differences:

    SWB is a bill of lading attached to the ship, similar to electronic release. Once the SEA WAY BILL is confirmed, the agent will directly release the goods to the consignee upon arrival at the port;

    In the case of electronic release, even if the goods arrive at the port for a long time, as long as the shipper does not notify the agent in writing to release the goods, the agent will not release the goods to the consignee;

    The main difference between SWB and B/L is that SWB does not have the function of a property right certificate. A bill of lading is a type of property right certificate that can be transferred through endorsement (indicative bill of lading), while a sea waybill cannot be transferred, and the consignee on the sea waybill can only be the consignee indicated on the sea waybill;

    As long as the customer's payment is received in full, there is no risk in the above forms of release.
