OVERVIEW

This workshop is titled, ‘Electronic Trade Documentation.’

This month, we are offering a workshop titled ‘Electronic Trade Documentation’, with a focus on the E-Ocean Bill of Lading as a Trade Document, under the Carriage of Goods Act by Sea, normally a paper document versus a digital copy.

We cover the UK Electronic Trade Documentation Act 2023. Chapter 38, to establish if UK legislation compromises state, nation legislation and its sovereign principles including the best interests of industry, companies, and the end consumer/public. Comparisons are brought forward between the US, Canadian and UK jurisdictions in terms of its adoption of the Act, if it is acceptable under each nation’s sovereign laws, and if not, can bills still be converted from digital to hard copy without loss or delay of cargo delivery?

We discuss the topic of legal efficacy and integrity of the original bill of lading used as evidentiary documentation in litigated disputes, if they should arise.

We examine the impacts to Industry and companies having to exchange bills of lading in terms of added capital, human resources and training, cost of software and its implementation across all regions.
