由 lltx1822 Sea Shipping to Argentina: Handling Process for Lost Bills of Lading
Argentine law stipulates that if the consignee loses the bill of lading, he must declare to the customs. With the customs’ consent, the shipping company or its authorized agent will issue another set of bills of lading, and at the same time submit a statement to the relevant institutions confirming that the original bill of lading is invalid. This regulation aims to ensure the safety and traceability of goods delivery and prevent goods from being fraudulently claimed due to lost bills of lading. If the consignee accidentally loses the bill of lading, he should immediately start the declaration process, explain the situation to the customs in detail, and cooperate with the shipping company or its agent to complete the issuance of a new bill of lading. At the same time, in the submitted statement, accurately describe the goods information, bill of lading related information, etc., to ensure the validity of the statement. This process may involve certain costs and time, and the consignee needs to be prepared in advance.
