Dear Sir/ Madam

I have Introduce you about the Multimodal Shipping here, So Please Review About this Multimodal Shipping

What is Multimodal Shipping?

Multimodal Shipping describes the contractual arrangements, rather than shipment mode.

Most international freight door to door shipments are either intermodal or multimodal. Although they sound like a
shipment mode, they are both really a combination of other modes.

By using shipping containers, shipments can easily move from one form of transport to another. The mode used for
pickup and dropoff is usually road, although rail or barge modes may also be used. The modes used for the main transit
is either ocean or air.

Under a multimodal shipping arrangement, the shipper has one contract of carriage with the forwarder. That is, there is
only one house bill of lading. This arrangement cuts down on other paperwork as well and requires less
communications too – including for shipment tracking. The other benefit of multimodal freight is that it should also
result in better routing and a shorter transit time.

Multimodal transport is a combination of several shipping modes like the truck, rail, ocean or air to deliver freight to
its destination. Multimodal shipping suggests all of your freight movements are handled under a unified bill of lading,
even if different carriers are moving it.

What is the difference between multimodal and intermodal transport?

Both intermodal and multimodal transportation suggest using two or more shipping modes. However, there is a list of

differences between intermodal and multimodal transport. When you ship intermodal, a different carrier is responsible

for each part of your transportation. Consequently, you have several separate shipping bills and reports from each link
in the chain.

When using multimodal, all of your shipments are signed under a single bill of lading. Both transportation methods
have benefits and drawbacks, and here we will dive deep into multimodal.
What are the benefits of multimodal transport?

Multimodal transport can benefit many businesses that ship large amounts of freight on a regular basis. The main
reason why companies prefer multimodal is that it requires less time and effort. All the shipments are under a single
bill and are usually managed by an external party. Other than saving money and time, there are many reasons your
company should choose multimodal transport when planning your next shipment, including:

Time savings:-

Since in multimodal transportation one shipping provider handles the entire process, you’ll only have to communicate
and get a report from one company. This ensures less worrying about the shipment, and faster transit times, which
eventually result in higher productivity.

Cost-efficiency:-

It may seem like picking carriers with the lowest price is definitely a more profitable option. However, the lowest price
is not always the greatest deal. Intermodal transport involves not only different contracts and carriers but also multiple
shipment insurances. A much easier logistics coordination within multimodal can help you save a significant amount
of money on transportation.

Less worrying:-

When a single carrier handles your freight from door to door, it ensures easier communication and efficient tracking. It
delegates a larger piece of responsibility and liability to the company coordinating your logistics.

Easier Communication:-

When companies ship through multimodal transportation, they handle all shipping updates, delays and interactions
through one provider and contract. This gives shippers ease of mind and simplifies the process of communicating
between different contacts and carriers. Essentially, when you have one person responsible for the entire transportation
chain, it’s much easier to just focus on the business and not spend time bouncing from one call to another.
Faster Transit Options:-

Due to new restrictions on truck drivers on driving hours and other regulations, some longer haul shipments are not as
fast as they once were. The combination of different transportation modes under one contract lets you have a piece of
mind and balance transit time. That way, you avoid drivers driving too long and therefore bypass shipping delays.
Giving companies more options for their shipment gives you control and flexibility over the loading and unloading
process.

Ultimately, multimodal transport helps guarantee consumers on-time deliveries and true cost savings. Whether you are
shipping by air, rail or barge, multimodal shipping can be a solution for you.

Types of multimodal transport

With multimodal transport we guarantee that your goods remain intact while travelling from their origin to their
destination and with a single transport contract and bill

of lading. To illustrate how multimodal transport functions, let’s look at the most frequent combinations:

Multimodal maritime and road transport

One of the most frequent multimodal transport combinations is loading freight from a ship onto a truck. Here we
refer to probably the most widely used transport

service given that when freight arrives at a port another vehicle is almost always necessary to take it to its precise
delivery point.

Multimodal rail and road transport

Although we work in areas with excellent rail networks, we have to admit that it’s impossible to reach the same
places by train as we can by road. The best idea is

therefore to make use of the train’s speed to arrive as close as possible to the destination, from where a truck will
complete the door-to-door transport of your goods.

Note:-By the Above Explanation About The Multimodal Shipping, I Can Assure you That When we Will go in
Copper Concentrate Deal with LC MT700 at Loading Port then Both Party Will Secure by the Payment Safety.
Because Payment Will Be Secure by LCMT700, and It will be Release, on behalf of Bill if Lading.
