The Line Bill of Lading is a fundamental document in international shipping and trade, governed by Austrian law and relevant EU regulations. It is used when goods are transported by sea through regular liner services, whether for import or export transactions. This document type combines three essential functions: it serves as a receipt confirming the carrier's possession of goods, provides evidence of the contract of carriage, and acts as a document of title that can be used to claim or transfer ownership of the goods. The Line Bill of Lading includes detailed information about the shipment, including vessel details, ports of loading and discharge, cargo description, and applicable terms and conditions. While Austria is landlocked, its position in international trade and EU membership makes this document crucial for Austrian businesses engaged in global commerce. The document must comply with Austrian Commercial Code (UGB), relevant EU regulations, and international conventions such as the Hague-Visby Rules.
