Confirmation Order

What is a Confirmation Order?

A confirmation order is a document that confirms the receipt and acceptance of an order. In the transport industry, the document confirms that a transport order has been placed. In other industry, especially retail, it confirms an online order placement of consumer goods.

The confirmation order acts as an official written document that validates and binds an agreement between the carrier and the shipper. Without a confirmation order, it would be difficult to prove or confirm the delivery of goods.

This is a confirmation document sent from the seller to the buyer.
