'Telex Release' is a historic term that remains in use today. The term originates from when bill of lading releases were sent using a teleprinter machine on a network called Telex. Although the 'telex' fell out of use in the 1980s and was superseded firstly by fax and then by email the term is still used to release a bill of lading in lieu of an original copy.
