Charter Party and Bill of Lading Terms
and Clauses: Analysis
Exercising lien on freight, sub-fright,
dead-freight, bunker and demurrage etc.
it requires details general analysis on
Charter party and bill of lading clauses.
With several other regular issues, it
appears that in many cases the Bank or
consignee, neither of whom are a party to
the head charter, is the named consignee
in the bill of lading, and hence a party to
the bill of lading contract. Under English
law, in case of straight bill of lading, Bank
or consignee is the only party to which
delivery of the cargo can be made. The
lien in the head charter only allows the
Owners to deny delivery to Bank or
consignee if the lien clause is
incorporated into the bill of lading
contract. When the bill of lading is on the
Gencon 94 form, stating “freight payable
as per charter party”, and no charterparty
date has been entered on the front of BL,
as also observed here. In such like case,
the wording on the reverse of the bill will
state that all term, conditions etc of the
charterparty “dated as overleaf” are
incorporated. Even if no date is entered,
as per English law it will assume that the
parties intended to incorporate a charter
party and will be identified
