'Telex' is a brand name for the international teleprinter network service.

It is not an acronym as IBM is forIntercontinentalBallistic Missile orInternational BusinessMachines.

telex

The international telegraphic message-transfer service consisting of a network of teleprinters. Subscribers to a telex service can exchange textual communications and data directly with one another. Telex systems originated in Europe in the early 1930s and were widely used for several decades. The ability to conduct high-speed digital communication over regular telephone lines led to a decline in the use of telex, but it is still used as a data transmission service for applications in which high transmission speeds are not necessary or in areas where more modern data equipment is not available.

What is required of the shipper to obtain telex release of bill of lading?

The shipper has to be willing to agree the terms of a telex release. If the shipper will agree to have a telex release issued all they need to do is inform the carrier or freight forwarder that the bill of lading needs to be a telex release instead of an original bill of lading. Normally, the shipper will only agree to a telex release if the consignee pays for the goods prior to shipping, otherwise the shipper will not have any recourse with a telex release if the consignee fails to pay.
