These are general recommendations for reviewing your Air Waybill (AWB) before shipping. Your account executive will provide the specific details for your air freight shipment.

  • Confirm the cargo acceptance deadline (cargo cut-off) with the airline.
  • Check that the shipper and consignee details match the commercial invoice exactly.
  • Review the origin airport, destination airport and agreed Incoterm.
  • Confirm the goods description, number of pieces, gross weight and volumetric weight.
  • Specify whether special handling is required (dangerous goods, perishables, valuables, etc.).
  • Review billing details and references (PO, commercial invoice, marks and numbers).
