Bill of Lading Printing

Bill of Lading (B/L) enables you to manage your B/L process with OOCL. OOCL uploads draft B/Ls in order for you to quickly view the content, request changes, and accept your documents, reducing additional phone calls and faxes. You can then print your original B/Ls, sea waybills, or copy B/Ls.
