PLI — Pre-Landing Inspection

Pre-landing inspection of cargo and containers before discharge — so condition, packing and seals are recorded before the goods leave the vessel.

Service

Condition established at the ship’s rail

Overview

PLI (pre-landing inspection) records the condition of cargo and containers before discharge. It is the counterpart of PSI: one certificate at origin, one at the rail before the goods hit the quay — so shortage, wetting or damage is timed, not argued.

  • Visual condition of cargo and packing at discharge
  • Container and seal inspection before opening
  • Tally and identification against documents
  • Photographic evidence for claims and L/C files

Often instructed together with PSI and container inspection.
