A Forwarder’s Cargo Receipt (FCR) is an important document in international freight forwarding, confirming that the forwarder has received the cargo from the shipper. This legally binding document outlines the terms of the agreement and serves as proof of the forwarder’s possession of the cargo and responsibility for arranging its transportation. The FCR contains vital information about the cargo, including its description, quantity and handling instructions.
