marine cargo survey reports

A marine cargo survey report is an official document that assesses the condition, quantity, quality, and packaging of cargo before shipment or upon arrival. It verifies that goods meet contractual and safety standards, helping protect buyers, sellers, and insurers from discrepancies or damages. The report typically includes details about the cargo’s physical state, whether it’s properly packed, and if there are any damages or contamination. These surveys help ensure transparency, fairness, and accountability in international trade by providing an unbiased record of the cargo’s condition at critical points in the shipping process.
