　　The main parties on a bill of lading are shipper, consignee, notify party and carrier. The shipper is the person, usually the exporter, who sends the goods. Consignee refers to the person entitled to take delivery of the goods. Carrier is the person or company who has concluded a contract with the shipper for carriage of goods. Notify party is the party that the carrier must notify when the goods arrive at the port of destination. The carrier issues an arrival notice informing the notify party about the cargo discharge point, number of packages and other information.
　　It is important to date bills of lading correctly, and as per date on which the cargo is actually loaded. Cargo quantity and condition should also be adequately and correctly described in the bills of lading.
