12、 of the credit 1) The terms of a credit are independent of the underlying transaction even if a credit expressly refers to that transaction. To avoid unnecessary costs, delays, and disputes in the examination of documents, however, the applicant and beneficiary should carefully consider which docume

13、nts should be required, 2 by whom they should be produced and the time frame for presentation. 2) The applicant bears the risk of any ambiguity in its instructions to issue or amend a credit. Unless expressly stated otherwise, a request to issue or amend a credit authorizes an issuing bank to supple

14、ment or develop the terms in a manner necessary or desirable to permit the use of the credit. 3) The applicant should be aware that UCP 600 contains articles such as 3, 14, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24, 28(i), 30 and 31 that define terms in a manner that may produce unexpected results unless the applicant ful

15、ly acquaints itself with these provisions. For example, a credit requiring presentation of a bill of lading and containing a prohibition against transhipment will, in most cases, have to exclude UCP 600 sub-article 20(c) to make the prohibition against transhipment effective. 4) A credit should not

16、require presentation of documents that are to be issued or countersigned by the applicant. If a credit is issued including such terms, the beneficiary must either seek amendment or comply with them and bear the risk of failure to do so. 5) Many of the problems that arise at the examination stage cou

17、ld be avoided or resolved by careful attention to detail in the underlying transaction, the credit application, and issuance of the credit as discussed. * *LES Abbreviations 6) The use of generally accepted abbreviations, for example “Ltd.” instead of “Limited”, “Intl” instead of “International”, “C

18、o.” instead of “Company”, “kgs” or “kos.” instead of “kilos”, “Ind” instead of “Industry”, “mfr” instead of “manufacturer” or “mt” instead of “metric tons” C or vice versa C does not make a document discrepant. 7) Virgules (slash marks “/”) may have different meanings, and unless apparent in the con

19、text used, should not be used as a substitute for a word. Certifications and declarations 8) A certification, declaration or the like may either be a separate document or contained within another document as required by the credit. If the certification or declaration a ppears in another document whi

20、ch is signed and dated, any certification or declaration appearing on that document does not require a separate signature or date if the certification or declaration appears to have been given by the same entity that issued and signed the document. Corrections and alterations 9) Corrections and alte

21、rations of information or data in documents, other than documents created by the beneficiary, must appear to be authenticated by the party who issued the document or by a party authorized by the issuer to do so. Corrections and alterations in documents which have been legalized, visaed, certified or

22、 similar, must appear to be authenticated by the party who legalized, visaed, certified etc., the document. The authentication must show by whom the authentication has been made and include the signature or initials of that party. If the authentication appears to have been made by a party other than

23、 the issuer of the document, the authentication must clearly show in which capacity that party has authenticated the correction or alteration. 10) Corrections and alterations in documents issued by the beneficiary itself, except drafts, which have not been legalized, visaed, certified or similar, ne

24、ed not be authenticated. See also “Drafts and calculation of maturity date”. 11) The use of multiple type styles or font sizes or handwriting in the same document does not, by itself, signify a correction or alteration. 12) Where a document contains more than one correction or alteration, either eac

25、h correction must be authenticated separately or one authentication must be linked to all corrections in an appropriate way. For example, if the document shows three corrections numbered 1, 2 and 3, one statement such as “Correction numbers 1, 2 and 3 above authorized by XXX” or similar, will satisf

26、y the requirement for authentication. Dates 13) Drafts, transport documents and insurance documents must be dated even if a credit does not expressly so require. A requirement that a document, other than those men 3 tioned above, be dated, may be satisfied by reference in the document to the date of

27、 another document forming part of the same presentation (e.g., where a shipping certificate is issued which states “date as per bill of lading number xxx” or similar terms). Although it is expected that a required certificate or declaration in a separate document be dated, its compliance will depend

28、 on the type of certification or declaration that has been requested, its required wording and the wording that appears within it. Whether other documents require dating will depend on the nature and content of the document in question. 14) Any document, including a certificate of analysis, inspecti

29、on certificate and pre-shipment inspection certificate, may be dated after the date of shipment. However, if a credit requires a document evidencing a pre-shipment event (e.g., pre-shipment inspection certificate), the document must, either by its title or content, indicate that the event (e.g., ins

30、pection) took place prior to or on the date of shipment. A requirement for an “inspection certificate” does not constitute a requirement to evidence a pre-shipment event. Documents must not indicate that they were issued after the date they are presented. 15) A document indicating a date of preparat

31、ion and a later date of signing is deemed to be issued on the date of signing. 16) Phrases often used to signify time on either side of a date or event: a) “within 2 days after” indicates a period from the date of the event until 2 days after the event. b) “not later than 2 days after” does not indi

32、cate a period, only a latest date. If an advice must not be dated prior to a specific date, the credit must so state. c) “at least 2 days before” indicates that an event must take place not later than 2 days before an event. There is no limit as to how early it may take place. d) “within 2 days of” indicates a period 2 days prior to the event until 2 days after the event. 17) The
