In making a single shipment by liner， the first step is to ascertain the rate.The quotation for a certain shipment constitutes an offer on the part of the carrier.Only after the shipper accepts the rate quoted， can the carrier reserve the required space and deliver to the shipper or his agent a shipping permit (shipping order).This permit is addressed to the receiving clerk at the dock.When the goods are delivered to the dock， the shipping permit is exchanged for a dock receipt of a mate s receipt， which is a brief statement from the carrier s representative at the dock， indicating that the shipment has been received in apparent good order.This is a temporary receipt which must be exchanged for the regular ocean bill of lading before the vessel sails.
用定期班轮装运一批货物，第一步是要明确运费。开报某批货物的运费即构成承运人的报价。只有托运人接受承运人所报的运费后，承运人才能为托运人保留所需的舱位，并把装货单交给托运人或其代理。这份装货单是开给码头收货员的。当货物运抵码头后，凭该装货单换一张码头收货单。这是一份由承运人在码头的代表出具的简短证明书，证明货物已收到且完好无损。这是一份临时收据，在船起航之前，必须换成正式的海运提单。

询问装运情况函：
Dear Sirs，
Referring to our previous letters and fax， we wish to call your attention to the fact that up to the present moment no news has come from you about the shipment under the captioned contract.
As you have been informed in one of our previous letters， the customers are in urgent need of the goods contracted and are in fact pressing us for assurance of timely delivery.
Under the circumstances， it is obviously impossible for us to again extend our L/C No.3059， which expires on 21August， and we are obliged to remind you of this matter once again.
As your prompt attention to shipment is most desirable to all parties concerned， we hope you will let us have your shipping advice by fax without fail.
Yours faithfully，
敬启者：
请参阅我方先前发给贵方的信函及传真，今请贵方注意，直至目前，我方仍未收到贵方关于装运上述合同项下货物的任何消息。
我方已函告贵方，客户急需合同中所订购的货物，并竭力要求我方保证按时交货。
为此，我方显然不可能把有效期截至8月21日的第3059号信用证再次延期。我方只好再次提醒贵方关注此事。
因为有关各方对贵方迅速处理装运之事极为关注，所以敬请贵方立即传真装运通知。
告知已装运函：
