What are the main benefits of eBL?
- Immediate document availability within a secure environment
- Reduce risks of theft/fraud and costs to transport paper OBLs
- Potential for automating the full documentation chain (auto issuance/release, immediate payment release, etc)
What is required from Customs for eBL?
Countries need to adopt UNCITRAL MLETR (incorporation in local legislation).
As a stop-gap solution eBL solution providers have rulebooks or bylaws that they ask all parties to sign. They are in essence a mutual agreement to treat an eBL equivalently to a paper document.
How does the eBL process impact customs submission?
Customs Manifest is still being done as usual, adopting eBL does not change that. So for any countries that physical B/L are not required to be presented, the bylaws of the platform are enough to implement the solution.
What are the main obstacles of eBL?
- No interconnectivity across platforms
- All parties must be part of the same platform (if not, switch to paper)
- Customs not ready/accepting eBL
Difference between eBL and Sea Waybill?
While a Sea Waybill has no commercial value, an eB/L is exactly as a master B/L - it is negotiable / endorsable and acts as a title of ownership.
Chances are that seaway bills (current around 50% of bills are SWB) might be no longer needed with eBL fully rolled-out.
Is a scanned copy of a BL an eBL?
A scanned copy is not an eB/L. An eB/L requires:
- Confirmation of title of ownership (including ability for electronic endorsement)
- Unique copy (only exists in electronic format)
Moving from PDF into fully replacing the BL document for structured data.
