Latest Question

Could you please advise for the case where a charter party bill of lading is to be signed by the charterer (indicating its capacity as charterer and their name) for and on behalf of the named Master? I have read your case posted as below and it is NO for the case of for and on behalf of the Owner but not the Master. ASKED Can a charter party bill of lading be signed by the charterer (indicating its capacity as charterer and name) on behalf of the owner? ANSWERED By definition, a charterer is the person or entity that charters a vessel from the owner (or the owner's agent). There would not normally be a relationship between the two, as would exist between the owner and its agent. Article 22 does not provide for signing in the manner described.
