Hapag-Lloyd, one of the world's top five container shipping lines, has partnered with WiseTech Global to publish electronic bills of lading through Galileo, a cloud-native platform unifying trade finance and electronic document workflows. The first milestone was a live eBL issued to GEODIS, demonstrating end-to-end movement of a verified electronic document from carrier to freight forwarder. The integration is built on DCSA API v3.0 standards and connects Hapag-Lloyd to roughly 22,000 logistics providers covering approximately 90% of global ocean container capacity. Customers can manage eBLs within CargoWise, INTTRA, or directly in Galileo, enabling banks to act on verified shipping documents in real time and cargo owners to access financing against goods still at sea.
