Bills of lading, issued and handed over in the file

The shipping line or forwarder issues the bill of lading from the shipment file, title passes by signature, and the delivery order comes back to the same file.

An electronic bill of lading

How it works

  1. 1Drafted from the file

    The supplier approves the draft before anything is issued.

  2. 2Issued as the deal needs

    An eBL, a sea waybill or paper.

  3. 3Title passes by signature

    The file always shows who holds it.

  4. 4Surrendered for delivery

    The agent issues the delivery order into the same file.

Works with other eBL platforms

Sent and received over DCSA's standard

The holder can send an eBL to another platform, or receive one from it, with title moving with it.

Issued from the carrier's own system

A carrier can issue into Sila and receive the surrender over DCSA's APIs.
