How to fill out transport documents correctly

What the consignor fills in (column numbers)

1. Sender
2. Recipient
3. Place of unloading of goods
4. Place and date of loading the goods
5. Attached documents
6-12. Cargo Information
13. Sender's instructions (such as customs of departure, etc.), declared value of the goods
14. Return
15. Terms of payment
20. Special agreed terms
21. City and date of the document
22. Signature and stamp of the sender

The CMR is a document that must be declared to customs, so it must be ready before the customs declaration is submitted to the customs authorities.

What does the carrier fill out

16. Carrier
17. Subsequent carrier (if there will be a transfer to another carrier along the way)
18. Reservations and remarks of the carriera
23. Waybill number, driver's name and stamp
25, 26. Registration numbers and brands of the tractor and semi-trailer

What is filled in by the consignee

The consignee fills in only one item - the 24th. In it, he puts the seal of the organization, signature, date and time of unloading. All this must be entered into the CMR at the time of unloading. Without this, the shipment will not be considered completed. In addition, it will be impossible to confirm the 0% VAT rate and, as a result, there is a threat of additional VAT at a rate of 20% on the cost of transportation.
