Document background
The Bill of Lading For Road (Transport) is a fundamental document in road transportation, used when goods are transported by road within Denmark or internationally. It serves three primary functions: as a receipt confirming the carrier's acceptance of goods, as evidence of the transport contract, and as a document of title to the goods. Subject to Danish law and, for international transport, the CMR Convention, this document must contain specific information about the parties involved, goods description, transport conditions, and liability terms. It's particularly crucial for establishing clear terms of carriage, documenting the condition of goods at pickup, and defining delivery instructions. The document is essential for both domestic Danish transport operations and cross-border shipments, requiring compliance with both national regulations and international transport conventions.
