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.

Salom barchaga, shaxsan o’zim qariyb besh oydan beri o’ynayman, shuning uchun fikrimni yozib qo’yay dedim. To’g’risi, boshida shubha bilan qaragandim — bizda bunaqa kontoralar ko’p, yarmisi pul to’lamaydi. Lekin 888starz mening holatimda hozircha muammo tug’dirmadi.
O’yinlar tomonini aytsam, assortiment juda keng — menimcha 5000dan ko’proq, aniq sanamadim. Asosan Pragmatic Play narsalarini aylantiraman: Gates of Olympus va Sweet Bonanza klassika, gohida Play’n GO ning Book of Dead ga qaytaman. NetEnt va Yggdrasil ham bor, faqat bularni kamroq ochaman. Live qismi yaxshi yig’ilgan — Evolution studiyasi, tirik krupyelar, Crazy Time esa kechqurun dam olishga zo’r.
Xush kelibsiz bonusi masalasi ancha munosib: birinchi depozitga 100 foiz ustiga va yana 150 frispin tushadi. Ammo shu yerda veydjerga qarab qo’ying — ko’pincha x35 atrofida, demak darrov yechib bo’lmaydi, sabr kerak. O’zim avvaliga shartlarni to’liq ko’rmay olib yubordim va biroz kuyib qoldim. Joriy aksiyalarni 888starz скачать на айфон orqali tekshirib olishingiz mumkin, pul tashlashdan avval shuni maslahat beraman.
To’lovlar bo’yicha: Visa va Mastercard bemalol o’tadi, Skrill bilan Neteller ham qo’shilgan, Bitcoin ham qabul qilinadi — o’zim ko’proq kriptodan foydalanib turaman, chunki tezroq. Minimal depozit arzimagan, deyarli 20 000 so’m atrofida desa ham bo’ladi. Yaqinda yechib oldim — hamyonga bir soatga qolmay keldi, karta bilan bo’lsa sutkacha kutdim.
Telefon versiyasi to’g’risida ham aytay: rasmiy sahifadan apk faylni olish mumkin, android uchun muammosiz ishlaydi, iPhone uchun ham yo’l topilgan, faqat sal chalkashroq. Brauzerda ham normal ishlaydi, dastur bo’lsa yengilroq tuyuldi. Meni yoqmagan jihat — hujjat tekshiruvi ancha sekin bo’ldi, ikki kun kutdim, qo’llab-quvvatlash esa rus tilida yaxshi javob beradi, o’zbek tilida ba’zida sekinroq. Litsenziya Curacao niki, ya’ni odatdagi variant — kimdir buni yoqtirmaydi, men uchun muhim emas, negaki to’lovda kamchilik ko’rmadim.
Qale do’stlar, men bu yerda qariyb yarim yildan beri stavka qilaman, shuning uchun fikrimni yozib qo’yay dedim. Ochig’i, boshida ishonmagandim — bizda bunaqa saytlar to’lib yotibdi, yarmisi pul to’lamaydi. Ammo 888starz mening holatimda shu paytgacha muammo tug’dirmadi.
O’yinlar haqida gapiradigan bo’lsam, assortiment haqiqatan katta — menimcha 6000ga yaqin ko’proq, hech kim sanab chiqmagan bo’lsa kerak. Ko’proq 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 ham bor, faqat bularni siyrak ochaman. Jonli bo’lim yaxshi yig’ilgan — Evolution dan, haqiqiy krupyelar, Crazy Time esa ishdan keyin vaqt o’tkazishga zo’r.
Bonus masalasi ancha munosib: birinchi depozitga 100% ustiga va yana 200 bepul aylanish tushadi. Ammo shu yerda veydjerga qarab qo’ying — ko’pincha x40 chamasi, demak darrov yechib bo’lmaydi, sabr kerak. O’zim birinchi safar shartlarni o’qimay olib yubordim va biroz kuyib qoldim. Joriy aksiyalarni 888starz uz skachat orqali ko’rib chiqsangiz bo’ladi, pul tashlashdan avval shu foydali bo’ladi.
To’lovlar haqida: kartalar bemalol o’tadi, Skrill bilan Neteller ham bor, Bitcoin ham qabul qilinadi — men asosan USDT dan foydalanib turaman, sababi tezroq. Minimal depozit arzimagan, taxminan 10 000 so’m chamasi desa ham bo’ladi. O’tgan hafta yechib oldim — kriptoga bir soatga qolmay tushdi, karta bilan bo’lsa bir kunga yaqin kutdim.
Ilova haqida ikki og’iz: saytdan ilovani yuklab olsa bo’ladi, Android da bemalol o’rnatiladi, iPhone uchun ham variant bor, faqat sal chalkashroq. Brauzerda ham normal ishlaydi, dastur bo’lsa yengilroq ko’rindi. Meni bezor qilgan narsa — verifikatsiya biroz cho’zildi, ikki kun kutdim, support xizmati rus tilida yaxshi javob beradi, o’zbekchada gohida sekinroq. Litsenziya Curacao niki, ya’ni xalqaro standart — kimdir buni yoqtirmaydi, menga shu ham yetarli, chunki to’lovda hozircha aldanmadim.
