Article 27
Posted: Wed Oct 18, 2006 1:00 am
Hi, I am a new comer to this Forum. I had 2 questions which like to have sharing from the group.
1. L/C called for AWB and did not call for actual date of dispatch. Latest shipment date: Oct 5.
We received AWB shoing a date of dispatch Oct 5 (not in the box "For Carrier Use Only) and the issue date being Oct 10. We had argument whether we should point as late shipment. Or should we just apply to Art 27 that since LC not actually call for a dispatch date, we would consider the issue date as the shipment date?
2. If the beneficiary of a LC is ABC Co. on behalf of DEF Co and whereas shipper on B/L is ABC Co. on behalf of DEF Co. with consignee as "to order". The endorsement on the B/L should be a) ABC Co; or b) DEF Co; or c) ABC Co. on behalf of DEF Co?
