Article 26 (a)
Transport document must not indicate that goods are or will be loaded on deck. A Clause on a transport document stating that the goods may be loaded on deck is acceptable.

Will you please explain us difference in above with example for understand precisely.

dear mando,

first of all, you posted two questions in one post. i think it would be helpful to answer if there were in different posts. anyway, answer to your first question here -

the article is quite self explanatory. in many bill of lading, especially the charter party one, there is often a pre printed clause stating that the goods may be loaded on deck. this is just a standard clause. for example right now im having a look at a bill of lading which shows "(of which -------- on deck at shipper's risk; the carrier not being responsible for loss or damage however arising)

this is a standard clause and not a discrepancy. but if the blank space shows "all" or similar, then it would be discrepant.

totally confused with one. the port of discharge is of the beneficiary's location :!: doesnt make in sense. besides, in case of a transferred Letter of credit, you cannot change the port of loading and discharge. please check the information again and post it in a new thread.
