What it means.
Proof of Delivery (PoD) is the conclusive commercial evidence confirming that goods have been successfully delivered to the recipient in acceptable condition, triggering invoice clearance, escrow release, and carrier compensation.
01DefinitionInternational Logistics Standard / TrustedTrucks Protocol
Verified legal documentation confirming that goods have been delivered into the consignee's custody.
Where it is used.
Cryptographically captured via mobile signature, consignee timestamp, GPS geofence verification, and optional photo inspection. Anchored as an immutable Merkle root to GoQuorum.
PoD Payload = Hash(Consignee_Signature + GPS_Coordinates + UTC_Timestamp + Damage_Exceptions). State transition triggers automatic escrow payout to carrier.
Read it carefully.
A PoD verifies physical receipt of freight; it does not waive statutory carrier liability for concealed damage discovered within statutory notification windows.
