A Master Bill of Lading (MBL) is a document created by the Carrier. It is issued as an original bill of lading and summarizes the content of a shipment including the bill of lading numbers, the lot numbers assigned to the various items within the shipment, as well as a description of the freight stored within each container of each bill of lading. The document also includes the terms for transporting the freight and the name and address of the consignor, or the shipper, and the consignee, the person who possess the goods.<br/>
