Collecting / presenting bank address

Simple is Beautiful; the only thing came in my mind when thought of documentary collection. And I think more and more people are thinking the same in these days. Documentary Collection offers us far greater security than selling on open account; but not as much as a documentary credit. We should therefore be more cautious before starting selling using this method of payment. Documentary Collection Forum is an effort to help you on this way – admin; besttradesolution.com

Collecting / presenting bank address

Post by Gart » Thu Oct 18, 2018 7:29 pm

Dear colleagues,

I just wondered if you as remitting bank ever check if address of a collecting / presenting bank address (indicated by your customer - drawee - in their collection application form to you) is genuine?

Hi Pal,

some AML rules and experience advise banks to check the address of collecting bank. Internet is useful in this case or bankersalmanac website.

They do, and usually they do bank simply googling and checking, same is to do (sometimes) with the background of the company
