The Trucker's Bill of Lading is a fundamental document in Swiss road transportation, essential for both domestic and international freight movements. This document is required whenever goods are transported by road in Switzerland or across its borders, serving three crucial functions: as a receipt confirming the carrier's possession of the goods, as evidence of the transport contract, and as a document of title. The document must comply with Swiss federal legislation, including the Code of Obligations and Federal Act on Freight Forwarding, as well as international conventions like the CMR for cross-border transport. It contains vital information about the shipment, including detailed descriptions of the goods, handling instructions, and liability terms. The Swiss Trucker's Bill of Lading is particularly important for maintaining compliance with strict Swiss transportation regulations while facilitating efficient trade operations.
