What is Shipment Advice in Export Import Business?
Shipment Advice is a formal notification provided by exporters to buyers, informing them about the details of the shipment being dispatched. It includes essential information such as vessel details, expected times of departure and arrival, invoice details, and particulars of shipped goods. This ensures transparency, timely updates, and smooth coordination between exporters and importers.
How Shipment Advice Works:
Exporters finalize shipping arrangements and compile shipment information.
Exporters generate a Shipment Advice document and send it to buyers/importers.
Importers receive timely information about shipment details, allowing them to plan customs clearance and logistics efficiently.
Both parties coordinate effectively, minimizing delays and streamlining the entire import-export process.
Details Typically Included in Shipment Advice:
Invoice Number & Date
Letter of Credit (L/C) Number
Bill of Lading Number & Date
Vessel Name
