TT Talk – The IMB NVOCC Register
Reducing bills of lading risks
While there may be valid trading reasons that give rise to bill of lading difficulties, there is an unhealthy under-belly of criminal activity.
TT Talk canvassed some trading issues relating to bills of lading in the December 2018 edition. Reference within those articles was made to the English law position articulated in Motis Exports case1, explaining the risk exposure to bill of lading issuers and stakeholders relying on the documentation. This article applies to the industry vulnerability to fraudulent activity.
Banking scrutiny
The International Chamber of Commerce’s Commercial Crime Services division has a primary function of protect the integrity of international trade by seeking out fraud and malpractice and providing reports based on this activitiy to its members.
Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli.
Commercial banks commence thousands of investigations each year in relation to fraudulent bills of lading which are undertaken by the International Maritime Bureau (IMB), a division of CCS. Through 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. This supports banks in relation to their compliance procedures to prevent fraud, money laundering and sanctions breaches.
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.
It is recognised that NVOCCs and freight forwarders play a vital role in international trade and whilst the majority operate to extremely high standards, there are inevitably those who for a variety of reasons may deliberately or recklessly issue bills of lading with false content. It is important that safeguards are in place to ensure the security of bills of lading and that there are systems in place to track any misuse.
As a result of recent trends involving bill of lading fraud and a growing concern of their stakeholders, the IMB developed a new initiative, unveiled at Enterprise, Singapore on 15 January 2019, during a panel discussion on the manipulation of bills of lading attended by over 100 delegates from banks, logistics companies and lawyers. The primary objective is to provide a common open platform from which to improve anti-fraud standards and to give due recognition to participating NVOCCs who adhere to the minimum standards established within the platform.
NVOCC vulnerability
"IMB estimates that over 95% of all improperly issued bills of lading are issued by NVOCCs."
From this work, IMB estimates that over 95% of all improperly issued bills of lading are issued by NVOCCs. This is a staggering finding, albeit relating to a small percentage of the total transactions, but a clear indicator of the vulnerability of some elements of the NVOCC sector.
Announcing IMB NVOCC register
“Maintaining the integrity of the bill of lading is of paramount importance to all stakeholders in global trade”
TT Club believes that this initiative to improve standards and reduce potential exposures to fraudulent activity through the supply chain is beneficial to the industry and would therefore encourage its NVOCC membership to evaluate the platform and consider participation in it.
We gratefully acknowledge the assistance in the preparation of this article of Pottengal Mukundan, Director, International Maritime Bureau, ICC-Commercial Crime Services
The initiative introduces an open source NVOCC register in conjunction with a new IMB Code of Conduct which all participating NVOCCs are required to adopt. The Code of Conduct is supported by an online training course which sets out minimum standards for the issuance of NVOCC bills of lading. Participating NVOCCs remain accountable where a document they have issued is found to be fraudulent, however it is anticipated that a wider knowledge of good practice will result in fewer cases of fraud being identified.
Maintaining the integrity of the bill of lading is of paramount importance to all stakeholders in global trade. Where fraudulent activity is allowed to continue, there is a real danger that key stakeholders de-value the worth of the bill of lading. Inevitably, should the industry not be able to address commercially the challenge presented by the use of fraudulent documents, there is a risk that regulations may be required. This initiative recognises and seeks to address this industry wide challenge, seeking to promote awareness and support compliance with acceptable trade practices.
Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?

Salom barchaga, shaxsan o’zim taxminan olti oydan beri o’ynayman, shuning uchun tajribamni yozib qo’yay dedim. Ochig’i, boshida shubha bilan qaragandim — O’zbekistonda bunaqa kontoralar to’lib yotibdi, yarmisi to’lovda ming bahona qiladi. Ammo 888starz menda shu paytgacha umuman aldamadi.
O’yinlar tomonini aytsam, assortiment haqiqatan katta — menimcha 4000dan oshadi, aniq sanamadim. Asosan Pragmatic Play narsalarini tepaman: Gates of Olympus va Sweet Bonanza klassika, gohida Play’n GO ning Book of Dead ga o’tib turaman. NetEnt va Yggdrasil dan ham yetarlicha bor, faqat bularni siyrak o’ynayman. Live qismi alohida gap — Evolution dan, haqiqiy krupyelar, Crazy Time esa kechqurun vaqt o’tkazishga zo’r.
Bonus tomoni ham yomon emas: birinchi depozitga 100 foiz qo’shimcha va yana 150 bepul aylanish beriladi. Ammo shu yerda shartga qarab qo’ying — odatda x35 atrofida, demak tezda chiqarolmaysiz, shoshilmaslik kerak. Men avvaliga shartlarni o’qimay olib yubordim va biroz kuyib qoldim. Amaldagi takliflarni 888starz скачать ios orqali ko’rib chiqsangiz bo’ladi, pul tashlashdan avval shuni maslahat beraman.
To’lovlar haqida: kartalar bemalol o’tadi, Skrill bilan Neteller ham bor, kripto orqali ham mumkin — o’zim asosan USDT dan foydalanib turaman, sababi tezroq. Eng kam summa arzimagan, taxminan 10 000 so’m atrofida bo’lsa kerak. Yaqinda yechib oldim — hamyonga bir soatga qolmay tushdi, karta bilan bo’lsa bir kunga yaqin kutdim.
Telefon versiyasi haqida ham aytay: saytdan apk faylni olish mumkin, android uchun muammosiz o’rnatiladi, iPhone egalari ham yo’l topilgan, faqat biroz chalkashroq. Brauzerda ham yaxshi ochiladi, dastur bo’lsa yengilroq ko’rindi. Menga bezor qilgan narsa — hujjat tekshiruvi ancha sekin bo’ldi, uch kunga yaqin ovora bo’ldim, qo’llab-quvvatlash xizmati rus tilida yaxshi javob beradi, o’zbekchada gohida kechikadi. Ruxsatnoma Curacao dan, ya’ni odatdagi standart — ba’zilar bunga e’tiroz bildiradi, men uchun shu ham yetarli, chunki to’lovda hozircha aldanmadim.
Salom hammaga, shaxsan o’zim qariyb yarim yildan beri stavka qilaman, shuning uchun tajribamni yozib qo’yay dedim. Rostini aytsam, boshida shubha bilan qaragandim — O’zbekistonda bunaqa saytlar to’lib yotibdi, yarmisi pul to’lamaydi. Lekin 888starz mening holatimda hozircha umuman aldamadi.
Slotlar haqida gapiradigan bo’lsam, assortiment haqiqatan katta — menimcha 6000ga yaqin oshadi, aniq sanamadim. Ko’proq Pragmatic Play narsalarini tepaman: Gates of Olympus va Sweet Bonanza klassika, ba’zan Play’n GO ning Book of Dead ga o’tib turaman. NetEnt va Yggdrasil ham bor, lekin ularni siyrak o’ynayman. Jonli bo’lim yaxshi yig’ilgan — Evolution dan, haqiqiy krupyelar, Crazy Time bo’lsa ishdan keyin dam olishga juda mos.
Bonus masalasi ancha munosib: dastlabki to’ldirishda 100 foiz qo’shimcha plyus 100 bepul aylanish tushadi. Faqat shartga e’tibor bering — odatda x40 atrofida, ya’ni darrov yechib bo’lmaydi, sabr kerak. Men birinchi safar qoidalarni o’qimay olib yubordim va biroz kuyib qoldim. Amaldagi takliflarni 888starz skachat orqali ko’rib chiqsangiz bo’ladi, ro’yxatdan o’tishdan oldin shuni maslahat beraman.
Pul kirim-chiqimi bo’yicha: kartalar bemalol o’tadi, Skrill bilan Neteller ham qo’shilgan, kripto ham qabul qilinadi — men asosan kriptodan foydalanib turaman, sababi kutish kam. Eng kam summa kichkina, deyarli 20 000 so’m atrofida bo’lsa kerak. O’tgan hafta yechib oldim — kriptoga yarim soatda tushdi, kartaga esa sutkacha kutishga to’g’ri keldi.
Telefon versiyasi to’g’risida ikki og’iz: rasmiy sahifadan apk faylni yuklab olsa bo’ladi, Android uchun muammosiz ishlaydi, iPhone uchun ham yo’l topilgan, lekin biroz chalkashroq. Mobil brauzerda ham normal ishlaydi, dastur bo’lsa tezroq ko’rindi. Meni bezor qilgan narsa — hujjat tekshiruvi ancha cho’zildi, ikki kun kutdim, qo’llab-quvvatlash xizmati ruscha normal ishlaydi, o’zbekchada ba’zida sekinroq. Ruxsatnoma Curacao niki, ya’ni xalqaro standart — kimdir buni yoqtirmaydi, men uchun muhim emas, chunki pul chiqarishda kamchilik ko’rmadim.
Qale do’stlar, shaxsan o’zim taxminan besh oydan beri stavka qilaman, shuning uchun fikrimni bo’lishmoqchiman. Rostini aytsam, boshida ishonmagandim — bizda bunaqa saytlar to’lib yotibdi, yarmisi pul to’lamaydi. Ammo 888starz menda shu paytgacha muammo tug’dirmadi.
O’yinlar tomonini aytsam, tanlov haqiqatan katta — nazarimda 4000dan oshadi, hech kim sanab chiqmagan bo’lsa kerak. Ko’proq Pragmatic Play o’yinlarini tepaman: Gates of Olympus va Sweet Bonanza eskirmaydi, ba’zan Play’n GO ning Book of Dead ga o’tib turaman. NetEnt va Yggdrasil ham bor, faqat ularni kamroq o’ynayman. Live qismi alohida gap — Evolution dan, haqiqiy dilerlar, Crazy Time bo’lsa kechqurun vaqt o’tkazishga juda mos.
Bonus masalasi ham yomon emas: birinchi depozitga 100% ustiga plyus 150 frispin tushadi. Faqat veydjerga qarab qo’ying — ko’pincha x35 chamasi, demak tezda yechib bo’lmaydi, sabr kerak. O’zim birinchi safar qoidalarni to’liq ko’rmay olgandim, keyin afsuslandim. Amaldagi takliflarni 888starz скачать на андроид orqali ko’rib chiqsangiz bo’ladi, pul tashlashdan avval shuni maslahat beraman.

Ilova haqida ikki og’iz: saytdan apk faylni yuklab olsa bo’ladi, Android uchun muammosiz ishlaydi, iPhone uchun ham variant bor, faqat biroz murakkabroq. Brauzerda ham normal ishlaydi, dastur bo’lsa yengilroq tuyuldi. Meni bezor qilgan narsa — verifikatsiya biroz sekin bo’ldi, ikki kun ovora bo’ldim, support xizmati rus tilida yaxshi javob beradi, o’zbekchada ba’zida kechikadi. Litsenziya Curacao dan, ya’ni xalqaro variant — ba’zilar bunga e’tiroz bildiradi, men uchun shu ham yetarli, negaki to’lovda hozircha aldanmadim.
