Misdelivery claims highlight the risks involved when delivering cargo without the production of the original bills of lading.
Gard has been notified of several recent cases involving banks claiming for misdelivery of coal cargoes at Indian ports.
The cargoes were loaded at various ports and carried to India during the first half of 2018. Upon arrival in India, the cargo was delivered to receivers against letters of indemnity (LOIs) without production of the original bills of lading. The banks involved state that they extended credit for the purchase of the cargoes and that they are the holders of the original bills of lading.

煤炭货物在印度的错误交付
多起错误交货索赔案的发生,突显了无单放货时涉及的风险。
近期,Gard收到了数起银行声称煤炭货物在印度港口错误交付的案件。
相关货物于2018年上半年在各个港口装船,运往印度。抵达印度后,船方在未收到正本提单的情况下,凭无单放货保函(LOIs),将货物交付给了收货人。涉案银行表示,其为购买货物提供了信贷,是正本提单持有人。
