A bill of lading is a legal document issued by a carrier (such as a shipping company or a freight forwarder) to acknowledge the receipt of goods for shipment. It serves as evidence of the contract of carriage and provides information about the goods, the parties involved, and the terms of transportation.
When a bill of lading is tagged as "clean," it indicates that the goods have been received by the carrier in apparent good condition. In other words, there are no visible signs of damage or discrepancies noted at the time of shipment. It implies that the goods are being delivered in the same condition as they were received by the carrier.
The "clean" tag on a bill of lading does not necessarily indicate that the goods have been paid for, that they are on credit, or that they are duty-free. These aspects are typically handled separately and may depend on the terms of the underlying sale or agreement between the buyer and the seller.
