Dear Expert,

May I ask for your opinion of the following :

B/L showing name of agent :
Seaswift Shipping Agencies Sdn Bhd.

The alphabet “Sea” of the word “Seaswift” is illegible.

Is it a valid discrepancy to refuse documents citing such discrepancy?

Is there any ICC comment on this issue?


Please comment.

Thank you for your assistance.

Regards,

you may check Official Opinion TA609 which i think supports the refusal. other comments appreciated

i think its not that much illegible as you could read "sea". a illegible words; in my opinion this is a type of thing that you are unable to examine. so the possible impact is similar to some required document / statement which is not presented. to be safe, you may raise a refusal.
