What is a warehouse receipt?
Warehouse receipt is a certificate issued by the custodian to the depositor to pick up the goods after receiving them. Warehouse receipts can not only be used as receipt documents and goods receipts, but also transfer the ownership of goods under warehouse receipts by endorsement, or be used for pledge.

The transfer of warehouse receipts shall take effect after endorsement by the depositor and signature or seal by the custodian. When the depositor pledges the warehouse receipt, he shall sign a pledge contract with the pledgee, endorse the warehouse receipt and sign or seal it by the custodian. The pledge will take effect only after the warehouse receipt is delivered to the pledgee.

1. Name and domicile of the depositor.

So the storage period should be clearly specified on the warehouse receipt.

7. If the warehouse is insured, the insured amount, duration and name of the insurer.

8. Issuer, issuing place and issuing time. When filling and issuing warehouse receipts, the custodian shall record his name and the place and time of filling and issuing warehouse receipts in order to determine the rights and obligations of the parties.
