The Cargo Accounts Settlement Systems (CASS), managed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), is designed to streamline the billing and settlement process between airlines and freight forwarders.
There is no specific form required by law to be used for a claim; however, all freight claims must have four essentials elements: The freight shipment must be identified. The type of loss or damage to freight must be listed. The value of the freight claim. A demand for payment.
Here are the essential documents you should be prepared to submit: Bill of Lading (BOL) Commercial Invoice. Packing List. Damage Report or Survey. Photographs or Video Evidence. Claim Letter. Proof of Value.
The carrier has the burden of proof to show that damage was caused solely by the inherent vice of the goods and not by their own negligence, for example, failing to follow the shippers instructions for handling.
This is the basic list of documents that will be required when submitting your claim to a shipping line or air cargo carrier: Airway bill or bill of lading. Commercial invoice. Packing list. Survey report and photographs of damaged cargo. Claim value calculation. Salvage invoice/s or destruction certificate.
