Introducing eBL Auto Transfer & Auto Surrender

eBL - A faster & smarter way to manage your

Seaway Bills of Lading (SWB) shipments

 

OOCL's eBill of Lading (eBL) now offers Auto Transfer from shipper to consignee and Auto Surrender from consignee to OOCL — giving customers the same ease as a Seaway Bill, with greater control, security, and visibility.

==========

OOCL is transitioning all eligible Sea Waybill customers to eBL.

Only a 1 x time set up needed:

Once set up, Auto Transfer and Auto Surrender enable instant eB/L transfer to consignee and then instant surrender to OOCL for automatic cargo release instructions.

Reduce administrative workload:

Less email exchanges with OOCL for SWB issuing or cargo release instructions. Once Auto features are set up, there is no need to log in to system on a per shipment basis.

Enhanced Security and Traceability:

Customers have instant access to Digital Audit trails. Log in to system to see past eBL transfer & surrender dates.  Reduce risk of loss or fraud and improve operational visibility.

Getting Started is Easy:

OOCL will be reaching out to customers using SWB to guide them through a simple, one-time setup process to begin using eBills of Lading.

 

OOCL looks forward to our customers benefitting from our eBL digital documentation solution.

 

Yours faithfully,​

​OOCL (Australia) Pty Ltd.​​
