Which is a negotiable document?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Bill of Lading.
A bill of lading is a negotiable document, meaning it can be bought, sold, or traded. It serves as a receipt for goods received by a carrier, a contract for the transportation of those goods, and a document of title. This negotiable nature allows the holder of the bill of lading to control the disposition of the goods.
The other options are not negotiable documents. A cargo manifest is a non-negotiable record of the goods being transported. An export declaration is a government document required for the export of goods. A receiving report is a non-negotiable document that acknowledges the receipt of goods.
