The Ad Valorem Bill of Lading is a specialized shipping document used in maritime trade where freight charges are calculated as a percentage of the cargo's declared value, rather than standard rates based on weight or volume. This document type is particularly important in India, where it must comply with the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, 1925, and the Indian Bills of Lading Act, 1856. It serves multiple functions: as a receipt confirming cargo possession by the carrier, a contract of carriage evidencing shipping terms, and a document of title enabling cargo transfer during transit. The document is typically used for high-value shipments, specialized cargo, or when specific insurance and liability considerations are paramount. It requires detailed value declarations and often involves additional documentation to support the declared values.
