　　3. Shipping Documents
　　(1) The bill of lading
　　The bill of lading by itself is not a contract of carriage as it signed only by the carrier. However, it provides evidence of contract of carriage. It serves as a receipt for goods delivered to the carrier. Besides, the bill of lading serves as a document of title enabling the goods to be transferred from the shipper to the consignee or any other party by endorsement.
　　(2) Sea waybill
　　A sea waybill is the replacement of the traditional ocean bill of lading. The waybill is a non-negotiable document and made out to a consignee who is allowed, upon production of proper identification, to claim the goods without presenting the waybill.

　　(5) Delivery order
　　A delivery order is issued by the carrier or his agent to enable the consignee or his forwarding agent to take delivery of the cargo from the vessel.
　　(6) Mate’s receipt
　　A mate’s receipt is the receipt issued by the mate in the acknowledgement of the goods received on board which is subsequently exchanged for the bill of lading.
