Smart cargo owners will choose those reputable sea shipping agency companies. The selection of sea shipping agency companies can usually consider the following factors:
1. Sea shipping agency companies should be familiar with the common sense of shipping geography.
First of all, as a shipping agent, since ships enter and leave different countries, they should be familiar with world geography and shipping routes, the location of ports, transshipment locations and their inland distribution centers. Secondly, sea shipping agency companies should also understand the mode of international trade and its development trend, the flow of goods, etc.
2. Sea shipping agency companies should understand the adaptability of different types of ships to the cargo of the owner.
As an sea shipping agency company, you must understand ship characteristics such as country of registry and tonnage, gross registered tonnage (GRT), net registered tonnage (NRT), bulk cellar, packing cellar, gross deadweight tonnage (DWT), load line, ship class knowledge and so on. Sea shipping agency companies should also understand several types of cargo ships, such as liner, semi-container ship, semi-pallet ship, bulk carrier, ro-ro ship and full container ship.
3. Sea shipping agency companies should be familiar with shipping regulations.
In addition to the "Hague Rules", "Wisby Rules" and "Hamburg Rules", you should also properly understand the shipping regulations and port operating habits of the country where the goods are exported or the port of destination.
4. Sea shipping agency companies should be proficient in operating the documents for the transportation of goods by sea, and ensure that the basic production is correct, clear and timely.
The main shipping documents include bill of lading, sea waybill, manifest, consignment note, bill of lading, packing list, port receipt, chief mate's receipt, etc.
