Bill of lading, shipper consignee and notify party
Question about filling in a Bill of Lading (B/W)
I'm in the process of arranging shipping for my bike from Zeebrugge (Belgium) to Halifax (Canada) by RoRo. On the Bill of Lading one must fill in the Shipper, the Consignee and the Notify party.
I am the shipper, as I arranged the shipment and I am the owner of the bike.
I am also the consignee, as the bike will be delivered to me in Halifax.
If I'm right temporary importing a private vehicle in Halifax is easy and does not require an agent. This would make me the notify party when shipment arrives.
Would it be a problem if I fill in the same details three times?
I have asked the shipping agency I use in Belgium but they could not give me an answer. The mostly deal with cargo that goes from seller to buyer.
