ii An example of a container that falls under requirement d) is one whose transport has been booked by a freight forwarder or consolidator who has packed it with Freight All Kinds (FAK). While the freight forwarder or consolidator may have received an FCL bill of lading from the shipping company, the container contains the consignments of more than one consignee, therefore the status is "LCL".
