The Freight Bill of Lading is a fundamental document in transportation and international trade, particularly vital under Austrian jurisdiction where it must comply with both national commercial code (Unternehmensgesetzbuch) and EU regulations. This document is required whenever goods are transported by a carrier, whether for domestic or international shipments. It includes critical information such as the identity of parties involved, detailed description of goods, shipping terms, and conditions of carriage. The Freight Bill of Lading serves three essential functions: it acts as a receipt for goods accepted for transport, provides evidence of the transport contract, and serves as a document of title enabling goods transfer. Its format and content must adhere to Austrian legal requirements while also meeting international standards when used in cross-border trade.
