How Trade Finance Works
A typical documentary letter of credit transaction flow.
Contract & L/C Application
Buyer and seller agree on trade terms. Buyer applies to their bank for a letter of credit specifying the required documents.
L/C Issuance & Advising
Buyer's bank issues the L/C and sends it to the seller's bank (advising bank), who notifies the seller.
Shipment & Document Presentation
Seller ships the goods and presents compliant documents (invoice, B/L, packing list, etc.) to their bank.
Document Check & Payment
Banks verify document compliance. Upon approval, payment is released to the seller and documents are sent to the buyer.
