The "mark" in foreign trade is a transportation mark to facilitate the identification of goods, prevent wrong delivery, and avoid confusion.

Usually composed of model, graphics or abbreviation of the receiving unit, destination port, number of pieces or batch number, etc.

Shipping mark in English: shipping mark is a shipping mark. It first appeared in the export trade of Guangdong and was first used by the British. The Cantonese people commonly call the shipping mark mark: mark, which is widely used today.

1 "Mark" is set up to facilitate the identification of goods.

Usually composed of a simple geometric figure and some letters, numbers and simple words. Its function is to make the goods easily identifiable by relevant personnel during the loading, unloading, transportation and storage processes to prevent mis-delivery, Misfortunes, mishaps and mix-ups.

The main contents include - (1) the abbreviation or logo of the consignee or buyer; (2) the reference number; (3) the name of the destination port (place); (4) the number of pieces and batch number.

(5) The country, place of origin, etc., and you can even indicate the address, phone number, etc. of the consignee.

These contents painted on the front and the corresponding side are called: positive marks.

The front mark refers to the side that people can see when the box is placed. It is usually the two ends of the rectangular box.

In addition, the transportation mark can also include: contract number, license number, payment number, order number, etc., as well as gross and net weight, volume, packing combination, box sequence number, quality level, etc.

The details are determined by both parties based on the characteristics and specific requirements of the product. Generally, these contents are painted on both sides, called: side marks.

Relevant regulations In view of the large differences in the content of transportation signs, some of which are too complicated and do not meet the needs of the increase in freight volume, changes in transportation methods, and the application of computers in transportation and document circulation, the United Nations European Economic The Committee's Working Group on Simplifying International Trade Procedures, with the support of the International Organization for Standardization and the International Cargo Handling Coordination Association, developed a transport mark to recommend to countries.

The standardized transportation mark includes:

①The English abbreviation or abbreviation of the name of the consignee or buyer;

②Reference number, such as waybill number, Order number or number;

③Destination name;

1④Number of goods.

Mainly for the main mark.

However, the specific content is mostly increased or decreased based on customer requirements, so it is not the same and cannot be done according to unified specifications. It is just a basic model reference.

But the main information of the consignee: consignee identification, consignee name, and destination port are essential.

Since many countries have regulations on neutral packaging and require the place of production to be indicated, indicating the place of origin has also become a necessary condition for import marks in some countries.

In addition to the order number and style number, side marks sometimes also indicate other information such as the quantity, color, size, specifications, grade, etc. of the goods in the box (package).

The front mark generally reflects the information of the consignee and is for the carrier to refer to; the side mark reflects the information of the goods in the bag.

The function enables shippers, carriers, supervisors and consignees to quickly identify the ownership, destination and packaging of the goods to avoid confusion and errors.

1) For shippers and buyers, shipping marks are convenient for management, statistics, reasonable calculation of weight and volume, and transportation arrangements to prevent errors.

2) Supervisors such as commodity inspection, customs, etc. can also be clearly identified, making it easier to supervise goods according to batches and inspect and release them.

3) It is convenient and fast for the carrier to check the delivery according to the mark prompts from warehousing to delivery and transportation transfer, sea and air transport to the destination port.

This is especially important when bulk cargo is mixed.

4) The consignee can know the contents just by looking at the outer box, and can quickly enter the circulation process without opening the box.

The consignee usually only looks at the side mark.

Domestic trade also follows the rules of export trade, and marks are often used on the packaging of goods to facilitate the storage, transportation and circulation management of goods.

When setting up, you must first clarify what the mark is: transportation mark.

So the most important function of the mark is to let the carrier see it clearly at a glance.

Generally, most of the exported goods must be warehoused first, and then loaded into trucks or ships. There will also be transfers between ships, and even stacking, reorganization, and container loading.

But no matter in the warehouse or on the head, only one side can be seen when placing it. At this time, the main information must be on this side: the positive mark.

In this way, no matter how many times the carrier loads and unloads, as long as they see these signs, they can send and receive the goods together to avoid errors.

Therefore, the main mark is very important, but the content should not be too excessive, otherwise it will easily cause misunderstandings. Irrelevant information can be placed in side marks.

Supervisors, including warehouse custodians, also look at the correctness of the mark.

The side mark is mainly set for the consignee, and the specific content can be determined by the consignee.

The information on the front mark is to ensure that the goods arrive in the hands of the consignee intact; the information on the side mark is to ensure that the goods arrive clearly and clearly in the hands of the consumer.

After clarifying the meaning of the front and side marks, you can set the marks reasonably.

So the correct mark must have: consignee identification and consignee information, just like mail must have a recipient.

In addition there must be a port of destination, which is the destination to which the carrier must be responsible for delivery.

There should also be a label of origin, which is what supervisors want to know.

The total number of boxes and sequence number (the total number of boxes, the sequence number of this box), this is also one of the necessary conditions to ensure that the entire batch can arrive at the destination port intact.

As long as other content is not something the carrier or supervisor needs to know, it can be placed on the side mark.

In addition to being widely used in transportation, other marks are commonly referred to as trademarks: trademarks, washing marks, ruler marks, as well as printed paper tags, leather labels, etc. with brand and trademark meanings. Labels, usually also called "marks", such as: trademark - main mark, wash mark - wash mark, ruler mark - ruler mark, woven mark, side mark, sticker mark, ironing mark, etc., are used in export trade It is also widely used in the production industry.
