What is BSC?
BSC is a mandatory loading document for all shipments to Mali. It is also known as CTN.
It was determined as a regulation in 2015 by the Mali Customs Officials. Failing to present the BSC document will lead to severe consequences and a hefty fine.
According to this law, every cargo purchased from abroad and transported for commercial, business, in some cases, diplomatic and personal purposes require a Loading Certificate called BSC – Bordereau de Suivi des Cargaisons.
The shipper or the freight forwarder is responsible for acquiring the BSC waiver certificate from the authorized representative.
- Bill of Lading: A draft copy can be used for the draft.
- Commercial Invoice – Incoterm, reference, and the date have to be mentioned.
- Freight Invoice: It is necessary if the freight cost isn’t on the commercial invoice.
According to MNSC (Mali National Shippers Council) regulations, BSC must be presented within 5 days after the vessel’s departure or 5 days before the ship arrives at the port.
Shipping or arrival without BSC or false information in BSC results in a fine of an amount equivalent to the BSC’s cost, plus the regulation charge determined by MNSC.
