NVOCC register created and minimum standards set for the
Issuance of NVOCC Bills of Lading
FMC defines NVOCC – Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carrier as:
- A common carrier that holds itself out to the public to provide ocean transportation, issues its own house bill of lading or equivalent document and does not operate the vessels by which ocean transportation is provided
- A shipper in its relationship with the vessel-operating common carrier involved in the movement of cargo
As there is no global regulatory body to register, control or regulate NVOCCs around the world, it is difficult to see how many NVOCCs are currently in operation around the world or where they are based..
- It is widely believed that the US market has the largest number of NVOCC operators in the world.. USA may also be one of the few countries where an NVOCC needs to be registered prior to offering services..
- NVOCC registration is also required in China as per certain publications which say that the operator must be registered with Ministry of Transportation..
- Not just in terms of their registration, but there doesn’t seem to be a clear definition on whether the NVOCC operator needs to register their bill of lading or not..
- Similarly, the requirement or need for registration of an NVOCC in other major jurisdictions is clear as mud..
What is the function of an NVOCC..??
An NVOCC is often termed as a “carrier to shippers” and “shipper to carriers”.. What does this mean..??
At the most basic level, an NVOCC enters into volume-based ocean freight arrangements with the various shipping lines operating across the various trade lanes.. An NVOCC then creates their own tariff based on which they sell space on these liner services to their various clients..
Depending on certain jurisdictions and markets, NVOCC’s activities may include but not restricted to below :
Ok, now to the subject of this post..
The ICC International Maritime Bureau (IMB) estimates from its work in verifying Bills of Lading that over 95% of all improperly issued Bills of Lading are issued by – yeah you guessed it – Non-Vessel Operating Common Carriers (NVOCCs)..
The IMB identified that there is a prevalence of issuance of incorrect NVOCC bills of lading by the NVOCC which is then presented to banks and other stakeholders in the trading and finance chain, with the aim of defrauding the trade finance system, possibly for the purposes of multiple financing, money laundering, etc..
The IMB has developed a business solution to mitigate the effects of this problem..
The IMB has established a register for Non Vessel Operating Common Carriers (the Register) who agree to abide by the IMB Code of Conduct for the proper issuance of NVOCC Bills of Lading..
The purpose of the Register is to improve anti-fraud standards and provide a mechanism to recognise participating NVOCCs who adhere to a minimum standard of anti-fraud measures in their operations..
Banks who are members of the IMB can now check whether the NVOCC named on the bill of lading presented to them has signed up to the IMB Code of Conduct..
This provides some sort of assurance to the banks and customers that the NVOCC bills of lading issued by these NVOCCs meet acceptable standards.. There are of course consequences for NVOCCs who fail to comply..
TT Club noted that in terms of banking scrutiny, The International Chamber of Commerce’s Commercial Crime Services division has a primary function of protecting the integrity of international trade by seeking out fraud and malpractice and providing reports based on this activity to its members..
Commercial banks conduct thousands of investigations each year in relation to fraudulent bills of lading and these investigations are undertaken by the IMB..
As part of the investigation process, IMB conducts due diligence on all trade documents, including bills of lading, and seeks independent third-party verification to provide an extra level of confidence in transactions..
Safeguard against shipping and freight fraudThis supports banks in relation to their compliance procedures to prevent fraud, money laundering and sanctions breaches, especially since banks are not obligated or have no resources to verify if the goods have been shipped on board..
Suspect bills of lading are those which have false content including the wrong ship, dates, description of cargoes, container numbers or parties..
Perpetrators present such bills of lading to banks to facilitate fraudulent activity including money laundering, fraud, illegal capital flight and to by-pass sanctions..
Shipping and Freight Resource fully supports this initiative of the IMB which sets out the standards for the issuance of NVOCC bills of lading, and also the fact that there will now be a register where NVOCCs can be tracked..
What is your opinion on this initiative..??
This is hugely beneficial to the shipping and freight industry and will surely reduce potential exposures to fraudulent activity throughout the supply chain..
Hopefully, in due course, this will become a regulatory requirement for NVOCCs and maybe even Freight Forwarders, much like a customs broker or clearing agent licence.
PS: As a point of interest, only the ICC and IMB seems to be expanding NVOCC as Non-Vessel Owning Common Carrier whereas everyone else including FMC, World Shipping Council, TT Club seems to expanding NVOCC as Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier..
Although it could mean both Owning or Operating, would be interesting to hear the rationale.

Salom, yarim yildan beri shu yerda o’ynayman, shu bois bir-ikki og’iz yozay dedim. Rostini aytsam, dastlab unchalik ishongan emasman — bundan avval ikkita saytda yechib olishda nerv buzilgandi. 888starz ayni damda meni ortiqcha boshog’riq qilmadi.
O’yinlar miqdori haqiqatan ham ko’p — men sanamadim, lekin kamida 7000 ga yaqin. Asosan Pragmaticning tanish narsalarini aylantiraman: Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza. Play’n GOdan Book of Dead ham turibdi, Betsoftning yaxshi slotlari ham uchraydi. Bir narsa bezovta qiladi — provayder bo’yicha saralash ozgina noqulay, izlagan slotni topmaguncha ancha varaqlaysan.
Jonli dilerlar bo’limi menga ko’proq yoqadi. Evolutionning jonli stollari bor, haqiqiy dilerlar ishtirokida ruletka va blackjack, Crazy Time kabi shou-o’yinlar ham kechalari odam ko’p. Internetim shahar sharoitida barqaror, shuning uchun lag bo’lmadi, ammo 4G da goh-goh sifat pasayadi. Yangi kelganlar uchun birinchi to’ldirishga 100% bonus hamda 200 ta bepul aylanish beriladi, wager 40x ga teng — ochig’i bu yengil shart emas, shu bois men bonusni ko’pincha rad etaman. Deposit qilmasdan promo ham chiqib turadi, aktual shartlarni 888starz dan qarab qo’ying.
Registratsiya bir daqiqada tugadi, minimal depozit arzimagan — o’zim 10 000 so’m chamasida sinab ko’rgandim. To’lovlarda karta, Skrill, Neteller hamda kripto bor. Kripto orqali yechish mening holimda yarim soat davom etdi, kartaga esa 24 soatgacha kutdim. Hujjat tekshiruvi so’ralgan edi — pasport surati jo’natdim, tez ko’rib chiqishdi.
Telefonda o’ynash qulay, Android uchun ilova to’g’ridan-to’g’ri yuklab olinadi, brauzer versiyasi ham yomon emas. Support chatda ruschada tez javob beradi, o’zbekcha bo’lsa har doim topilmaydi — aynan shu joyi biroz cho’ktiradi. Litsenziyasi Curacao, ya’ni O’zbekistonda hammasi o’z mas’uliyatingizda — shuni hisobga oling. Men har oy budjet belgilab qo’yaman va undan chiqmaslikka harakat qilaman.
Hammaga salom, yarim yildan beri shu yerda o’ynayman, shu bois bir-ikki og’iz yozay dedim. Rostini aytsam, dastlab unchalik umid qilmagandim — bundan avval ikkita saytda yechib olishda nerv buzilgandi. 888starz ayni damda meni ortiqcha asabga tegmadi.
Slotlar soni chindan ham ko’p — aniq sanamadim, ammo kamida 7000 dan oshadi. Ko’pincha Pragmatic Playning tanish o’yinlarini bosaman: Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza. Play’n GOdan Book of Dead ham bor, Yggdrasilning eskirmagan slotlari ham yetarli. Yagona narsa jonimga tegdi — provayder bo’yicha saralash anchagina qo’pol ishlaydi, kerakli o’yinni topguncha ancha aylanasan.
Jonli dilerlar bo’limi menga ko’proq yoqadi. Evolution Gamingning stollari ishlaydi, haqiqiy krupyelar ishtirokida blackjack, ruletka, Crazy Time kabi shou-o’yinlar esa kechalari juda gavjum. Internetim Toshkentda yaxshi, shuning uchun lag bo’lmadi, lekin 4G da goh-goh sifat pasayadi. Yangi ro’yxatdan o’tganlarga birinchi depozitga 100% bonus va 200 ta bepul aylanish beriladi, wager 40x atrofida — rostini aytsam bu oson emas, shuning uchun men ko’pincha bonussiz o’ynayman. Deposit qilmasdan promo ham chiqib turadi, aktual shartlarni 888starz uz orqali tekshirib ko’ring.
Ro’yxatdan o’tish bir daqiqada bo’ldi, eng kam to’ldirish juda past — men bir necha dollarlik summa bilan sinab ko’rgandim. To’lovlarda Visa va Mastercard, e-hamyonlar hamda Bitcoin va boshqa kripto bor. USDT bilan pul olish menda yarim soat oldi, kartaga esa bir sutkacha kutdim. Hujjat tekshiruvi talab qilingan edi, albatta — ID surati jo’natdim, tez ko’rib chiqishdi.
Smartfonda ishlash normal, Android-ga ilova to’g’ridan-to’g’ri yuklab olinadi, brauzer versiyasi ham yomon emas. Support onlayn chatda rus tilida tez javob beradi, o’zbekcha bo’lsa har doim ham emas — mana shu tomoni ozgina yoqmadi. Ruxsatnomasi Curacao, demak bizda hammasi o’z mas’uliyatingizda — buni yodda tuting. O’zim har oy qancha o’ynashimni oldindan belgilab olaman va undan chiqmaslikka harakat qilaman.
Assalomu alaykum, yarim yildan beri shu yerda o’ynayman, shu bois fikrimni bo’lishmoqchiman. Rostini aytsam, boshida unchalik ishongan emasman — bundan avval ikkita saytda kechikish bilan azob chekkandim. Bu yerda esa ayni damda meni ortiqcha boshog’riq qilmadi.
O’yinlar soni chindan ham kattagina — hisoblamadim, biroq kamida 5000 ga yaqin. Ko’pincha Pragmatic Playning mashhur o’yinlarini aylantiraman: Gates of Olympus va Sweet Bonanza. Play’n GOdan Book of Dead klassikasi ham turibdi, Betsoftning eskirmagan ishlari ham uchraydi. Yagona narsa jonimga tegdi — provayder bo’yicha saralash ozgina chala, kerakli o’yinni topguncha ancha aylanasan.
Live-kazino menga ko’proq yoqadi. Evolutionning jonli stollari bor, tirik dilerlar bilan ruletka va blackjack, Crazy Time kabi shou-o’yinlar ham kechalari to’lib ketadi. Aloqam shahar sharoitida yaxshi, shuning uchun uzilish bo’lmadi, ammo mobil internetda goh-goh video sekinlashadi. Yangi kelganlar uchun birinchi depozitga 100 foizli bonus hamda 200 ta bepul aylanish taklif qilinadi, wager 35x atrofida — rostini aytsam bu yengil shart emas, shu bois men bonusni ko’pincha rad etaman. Depozitsiz aksiyalar vaqti-vaqti bilan bo’ladi, hozirgi kodlarni 888starz uz da ko’rib olsangiz bo’ladi.

USDT bilan pul olish menda 20-30 daqiqa davom etdi, karta bilan esa bir sutkacha kutishga to’g’ri keldi. Verifikatsiya talab qilingan edi — ID surati jo’natdim, tez ko’rib chiqishdi.

Hammaga salom, taxminan olti oydan beri shu yerda tikaman, shu bois fikrimni bo’lishmoqchiman. To’g’risini aytganda, dastlab unchalik ishonmagandim — bundan avval ikkita platformada pul yechishda muammo bo’lgan. 888starz ayni damda meni jiddiy ovoraga qo’ymadi.
Slotlar miqdori rostdan ham kattagina — men sanamadim, lekin chamasi 7000 atrofida bor. Ko’proq Pragmatic Playning tanish o’yinlarini bosaman: Sweet Bonanza bilan Gates of Olympus.
