Integration with What is a CMR Document? International Consignment Note Guide for Logistics

A CMR document (Convention relative au Contrat de Transport International de Marchandises par Route) is the standard international consignment note used for road freight across countries that are signatories to the CMR Convention. Established by a United Nations treaty in 1956, the CMR document serves as the contract of carriage between the sender (consignor), the carrier, and the receiver (consignee). It is the single most important paper document in European and international road transport, with over 200 million CMR notes issued annually across Europe alone.

The CMR document records critical details: the names and addresses of all three parties, the place and date of goods receipt, the designated place of delivery, a description of the goods (including weight, volume, and number of packages), and any special instructions or declared value. Unlike a bill of lading used in maritime shipping, the CMR is not a document of title — it primarily serves as evidence of the contract and proof that the carrier took possession of the goods. For carriers and freight forwarders processing high volumes of these documents, automated data extraction is becoming essential.
