Booking Confirmation

A Booking Confirmation is an official document issued by a carrier or logistics provider to confirm a shipper’s reservation for cargo space on a specific vessel, flight, or other mode of transportation.

This document serves as formal proof that the carrier has accepted the shipper’s request. It includes key details such as the shipment date, cargo description, origin and destination, and terms of carriage.

The Booking Confirmation is essential for planning and coordinating logistics, ensuring all parties are aligned with the transport schedule and requirements. It provides shippers with confidence that their cargo has a reserved space and is scheduled for transport.

Accurate and timely booking confirmations are crucial for maintaining supply chain efficiency and reliability.
