Yes, the electronic bill of lading (eBL) is legally recognized in many jurisdictions worldwide.
Various international conventions, such as the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce and the Rotterdam Rules, support the use of electronic documents in trade. Additionally, specific national laws and regulations have been enacted to validate and facilitate the use of eBLs, ensuring they hold the same legal standing as traditional paper bills of lading.
Furthermore, the eBL is legally recognized by the International Group of P&I Clubs (IGP&I), and CargoX is one of the few eBL providers to receive their approval.
