The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, 2007 Revision, ICC.
Publication no. 600(“UCP”) are rules that apply to
any documentary credit (“credit”) (including, to the
extent to which they may be applicable, any standby
letter of credit) when the text of the credit expressly
indicates that it is subject to these rules. They are
binding on all parties thereto unless expressly
modified or excluded by the credit.
신용장의 개념
Credit means any arrangement, however named or described, that is irrevocable and thereby constitutes a definite undertaking of the issuing bank to honour
a complying presentation.
Honour means:
a. to pay at sight if the credit is available
by sight payment.
b. to incur a deferred payment undertaking and pay at maturity if the credit is available by deferred payment.
c. to accept a bill of exchange (“draft”) drawn by the beneficiary and pay at maturity if the credit is available by acceptance.
용어의 해석
A credit is irrevocable even if there is no indication to that effect.
Branches of a bank in different countries are considered to be separate banks.
Terms such as “first class”, “well known”, “qualified”, “independent”, “official”, “competent” or “local” used to describe the issuer of a document allow any issuer except the beneficiary to issue that document.
Unless required to be used in a document, words such as “prompt” , “immediately” or “as soon as possible” will be disregarded.
The expression “on or about” or similar will be interpreted as a stipulation that an event is to occur during a period five calendar days before until five calendar days after the specified date, both start and end dates included.
