Document background
The Shipper Agreement serves as a crucial legal framework for businesses engaging in the transportation of goods within or through Singapore. This document is essential when establishing a formal relationship between parties involved in shipping operations, whether for domestic or international trade. The agreement addresses key aspects such as liability allocation, insurance requirements, and operational procedures, while ensuring compliance with Singapore's maritime laws and international shipping conventions. It's particularly important for regular shipping arrangements rather than one-off transactions, providing a stable foundation for ongoing business relationships.
