从一则案例看记名提单的风险与防范

Risk And Prevention of Straight Bill of Lading From a Case

记名提单无法转让,而且货物所有权归提单上载明的收货人所有,在美国、南美、非洲等一些国家,提单上载明的收货人可以凭收货通知书或者提单复印件或者保函从承运人处获得货物,即使卖方或者其他善意获得提单的第三方持有记名提单,也无法获得货物所有权并处理货物。因此记名提单的使用,要事先了解进口商的信用,关注出口货物市场行情,避免承运人无单放货行为等,以防范记名提单带来的风险。

Straight bill of lading cannot be transferred, and the goods owned by the consignee shown on the bill of lading.In some countries, such as the United States, South America, Africa, the consignee shown on the bill of lading can get the goods from the carrier against the receiving notice or a copy of the bill of lading or Letter of guarantee, even if the seller or other third party who holds a straight bill of lading cannot take ownership of the goods and dispose of them. Therefore, the use of straight bill of lading, is necessary to understand the credit of the importer in advance, pay attention to the market situation of export goods, avoid the carrier to release goods without a bill of lading, so as to prevent the risks brought by straight bill of lading.
