DCSA Bill of Lading

Description

The objective of the DCSA Interface Standard for the Bill of Lading is to simplify the exchange of information between shipper, carrier and consignee/endorsee for the submission of shipping instructions, the issuance, amendment and surrender of transport documents.
In doing so, this publication supports standardisation of the fundamental information exchanged between these parties. The focus of this publication is to ensure agreement on the shared requirements and standards that must be followed to streamline inter-operational functionality and data sharing across relevant industry participants.
Agreement on standards will ensure that data exchange interfaces, including functionality and data provided, will follow the same definitions and design. The aim is to ensure that the end-user experience remains consistent across all industry participants who use these standards without the need for customisation. The standard must therefore be implemented in a 100% conformant way by every adopter in the ecosystem.
