please advise whether this is discrepancy or not.

On B/L the following is written

" SIGNED FOR THE CARRIER
XYZ OCEAN AS SEOUL OFFICE AS AGENT FOR AND ON BEHALF OF XYZ OCEAN AS"

DISC:

CARRIER NAME NOT IDENTIFIED.

Hi Pal,

Tricky question:
Signed for the carrier:
XYZ Ocean AS-Seoul Office as agent for and on behalf of XYZ Ocean AS,
it may indicate that the Seul Office sign for the carrier or for its h.o.
To avoid doubts carrier' name should have been written.
Other comments appreciated.

Hi Pal,

this is a note by Gary Collyer supporting my previous point of view:

Is the bill of lading correctly signed
Question raised: 08/12/2016 An ocean bill of lading has been signed as follows:
For the Carrier

..........................
ABC company as agents for CDE Company

Is the above signing okay?
CDE Company have not been identified as the carrier.
