Most common alongside 310
The 310 is the ocean carrier's combined freight receipt and invoice. It confirms receipt of cargo for a shipment, can substitute for a paper ocean bill of lading where the parties have agreed, lets the shipper or forwarder verify bill of lading data before an original is printed and released, conveys manifest information to a terminal operator, and bills the ocean freight. Trading partners require it because it serves as both the payment request and the shipment record for the ocean leg. The ocean carrier sends the 310 to interested parties to the shipment, typically the shipper or freight forwarder, and can also use it to pass manifest information to a terminal operator.
When it fires: An ocean carrier receives cargo for a booked shipment and issues the combined receipt and freight invoice covering that movement.
Common 310 rejection causes
- Charge detail in the L1 segments that does not reconcile with the agreed rates or with the invoice totals, which stalls the freight-payment audit.
- Vessel, voyage, or port identification errors in the V1 and location segments that prevent the receiver from matching the invoice to the booking and manifest.
- Missing hazardous material detail (H1/H2 segments) on dangerous goods shipments, which fails compliance checks at the receiver.
- Treating the 310 as a bill of lading substitute without prior agreement; the standard permits replacing a paper bill of lading only where the parties have agreed it is not necessary.
