Why Senegal asks for a legalised packing list
The packing list describes how a shipment is packed: number of packages, marks and numbers, dimensions and weights. Customs officers use it to inspect cargo, and chambers use it to support the certificate of origin. The exporter prepares the packing list on letterhead, showing packages, marks, net and gross weights for each item.
Many African customs authorities and banks ask for legalised commercial invoices and certificates of origin, especially for shipments paid by letter of credit.
Authorities, banks and business partners in Senegal usually ask for a legalised packing list for physical inspection at customs, supporting the certificate of origin or insurance and cargo claims.
A packing list issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Senegal accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
