A liner agent needs to promote the services offered by the shipping line while balancing the expectations of its customers. The documentation on each container ship may be in the thousands. It is the responsibility of the agent to make sure that these are correct and to ensure that all legal obligations are met. The responsibility does not end there but continues to the point when this information is received by the discharge port before the goods reach the ship. Collections and financial responsibility also fall within the preview of the agent.
