Please note that CargoX is offering FREE issuance and transfer of HMM eBLs until the end of 2026.
The eBL transfer fee is a one-time charge per document. This fee is payable by either party in possession of the eBL. If the eBL fee has not been paid by any party, it must be settled by the last party initiating a definitive action, such as requesting surrender for amendment, switching to paper, or requesting surrender for delivery.
The CargoX Platform operates as a pre-paid service. Units (π) are used as payment credit. One (1) CargoX unit (π) is equal to $1 US. Units (π) can be purchased directly through the CargoX Platform.
