Abstract
The main document in the process of "documentary" sale of goods is traditionally a bill of lading – a universal multi-purpose document used exclusively for the carriage of goods by sea or inland waterways. As practice shows, for example, in letter of credit transactions, banks, which are an important link in the contract of sale of goods, have a negative attitude to the so-called "unclean" bills of lading containing certain clauses, preferring to receive a set of documents that include only "clean" bills of lading. The article primarily analyzes the clauses that can be made to the bill of lading and are unilateral statements of the carrier on certain issues of performance of the contract of carriage by sea and do not require agreement with the shipper.
