New Air Waybill Conditions of Contract, and use of non-colored air waybills


In accordance with IATA Cargo Services Conference Resolution 600b, the Conditions of Contract that are printed on the back of AWBs must be changed effective 17 March 2008.

IATA recommends that agents contact their supplier of neutral AWBs to verify that this item is under control.

Any unused preprinted 117-AWBs delivered by SAS Cargo to agents must be returned by the above date, and new preprinted AWBs with the corrected conditions of contract delivered instead. When you use your normal order procedure, SAS Cargo/CPHEH will ensure that you receive the correct version.

It should also be noted that we allow use of non-colored AWBs, but they must meet precisely the same specifications and requirements as colored AWBs.

For more information, we recommend you download and read the official information from IATA, which is available at the link to the right.
