actual shipment

基本解释

The actual shipment date of mail despatches may be affected by unforeseen circumstances.
邮件的实际付运时间可能受其他未能预计的因素影响。
L/C can do nothing to actual shipment, because banks only examine the face of docs as long as docs appear to be consistent with L/C.
所以，即使第一程是海运，使用提单，他们应该坚持信用证规定提单上显示的是“受领货物”而不是“已装船”。
A received bill of lading is usually unacceptable to the bank or the importer as the goods may be left on the dock or in the godown for weeks or even months before actual shipment takes place.
银行或进口商一般不愿接受备运待装提单，因为货物可能被滞留于码头几周甚至几个月以后才能装运。
