Hi Pal,

Notwithstanding an educational on BOLERO, I have never seen an electronic bill of lading.
Probably it is used , but not with documentary credits.
Never seen an electronic l/c too!

No manual corrections allowed

As per my knowledge .....few major shipping companies provide electronic bill of lading....we have to re-release entire the B/L in case of any correction...no manual corrections allowed... Electronic bill of lading is going to be the future....unless LC says all documents to be manually signed .....i see no disadvantage
