It is issued in return for the goods delivered for transportation. The bill of lading is of great importance for traders engaged in international trade, as well as for individuals or companies that send shipments abroad or bring goods from abroad via cargo. In particular, since the bill of lading is required for the preparation and receipt of the delivery order (ordino), there are various types of bills of lading prepared in different forms depending on specific situations.
