Tex Release Obtainment

A telex release for a bill of lading (BOL) is one of the most crucial documents required to release the cargo at one port, even though the shipper has surrendered the OBL at a different port. Shippers can usually obtain a telex release by contacting the carrier that issued the OBL. In some cases, the carriers may ask for a letter of indemnity or demand a fee before issuing a telex release.
