• Transporting cargoes to overseas locations and
  even domestically entails a lot of
  responsibilities, documentation being a key one
  among those. Exporters often complain about this
  documentation being a hassling and protracted
  process, one that they could do without. But
  despite the shortening of the shipping process
  and minimization of paper works, documentation
  still continues to be a pivotal part of shipping.
  So the question arises in the mind as to why is
  documentation so important a part of the global
  transportation process? In this article, lets
  find out the precise reasons for it.

• Documents Represent Contracts
• Documents are needed in the global transportation
  of goods for varying reasons. One of them is to
  represent the contract of carriage. Shipping
  documents feature all clauses that apply to the
  operation of transportation of the said goods. It
  reads the conditions under which the shipping
  transaction is taking place. There are a number
  of documentation service providers in Dubai that
  helps with processing paper works for
  transportation.

• Documents are Proof of Delivery of Merchandise
• Documents in global transportation are essential
  because it is the legitimate proof that an item
  has been delivered. When a customer requests a
  proof, this is the document the seller produces
  to establish that the delivery was made. It is
  the same document that is sent to the buyer if it
  is requested.

• Documents Prove that Goods Have Been Delivered in
  Pristine Conditions
• Shipping involves goods on transit for a long
  time, often for weeks. So how can a seller
  establish that the goods were in the right
  condition when it was finally handed over to the
  buyer? Through documentation. The freight carrier
  would be within their rights to reject any goods
  that reach them in damaged or flawed condition.

• Following the rejection, a notification is sent
  to the exporter about the situation. In such a
  case, the document would read dirty or
  damaged goods thereby stating the problematic
  condition of the product. Similarly, if the goods
  reach the customer in a poor or unfit condition,
  they can send it back stating the reason for
  return and a refund or replacement will be issued
  in response. Shipping document services are
  available for the same.

• Documents Establish the Rightful Ownership of
  Goods
• Another reason why documentation should at all
  times accompany global transportation is for
  authorization. It is proof of the ownership of
  the goods. Documents are required to be presented
  at the customs to prove that you are the person
  who is authorized to receive the merchandise. For
  ocean freight, its the bill of lading. It is
  also through documentation that you can transfer
  the ownership of the goods to another party.
  Everything has to be on record and documentation
  makes that happen.
