Document background
The Shipper And Carrier Contract is a critical document used when establishing formal transportation arrangements between parties shipping goods and those carrying them. This agreement, governed by Singapore law, is essential for businesses requiring regular shipping services and helps prevent disputes by clearly defining roles, responsibilities, and liabilities. The contract typically includes detailed provisions for cargo handling, documentation requirements, insurance obligations, and payment terms, while ensuring compliance with Singapore's maritime regulations and international shipping conventions. It's particularly important for businesses engaged in regular shipping activities through Singapore's ports and waters.
