Shipping Instruction Template
What is a Shipping Instruction used for?
A Shipping Instruction is similar in purpose to a Shipper’s Letter of Instruction or Forwarding Instructions but is used when the shipper is dealing directly with a carrier/shipping line. The document provides details on the parties involved, the cargo being shipped, and any specific requirements for its transportation. The information on this document will then be used by the carrier to prepare the Bill of Lading. It is therefore important to ensure all details are accurate to avoid any critical issues or delays.
