Breaking News | What is a Telex Release?

Telex Release received its name because in the past the release would have been sent via Telex instead of via email, which is common now. A Telex Release is a message that is sent by the agent or shipping line from origin to their agent or office at destination to acknowledge that the shipper has surrendered the Original Bill of Lading that has been issued to them. This allows the cargo to be released to the consignee without having to physically present the Original Bill of Lading prior to release.
