I THINK IT'S NOT A VALID DISCREPANCY.

WE MAY QUOTE FORM COMMENTARY ON UCP 600,

IF TRANSPORT DOCUMENT SHOWS THE NAME OF THE ISSUING COMPANY TOGETHER WITH THE INDICATION "CARRIER', A SIGNATURE BOX WITH THE INDICATION "FOR AND ON BEHALF OF [NAMED OF THE ISSUING COMPANY] OR "FOR AND ON BEHALF OF THE CARRIER'" OR SIMILAR INDICATION WOULD BE SUFFICEINT.

HERE IT COULD BE DEEM THAT B/L HAS BEEN SIGNED AS CARRIER.

THANKS.
