should the drawer or remitting bank brings the case to the court?

Thank for your valuable comment.

Hi Pal,

collections have Uniform Rules, if the transaction is under these rules is ok. Remitting bank may change the original instructions and collecting bank must follow them. Collecting bank may refuse to handle document and send back them unpaid. Moreover, if for AML, KYC and CT rules, the transaction appears suspect, the collecting bank may report it to the local authorities.

Hi Paul as collecting bank is acting on behalf of RMT bank , collecting bank should follow their instructions and release docs to drawee free of payment .

Hi Pals,

The collecting bank, having no Swift RMA, may send by express courier the new instructions and list of authorized signatures is has no records of the signor of the originary cover letter.
It is possible to ask a friend bank to transmit new insructions by Swift, this was an acceptable way before the strict compliance terms!!!!!

picant said everything that needs to be said.
IF there is no SWIFT relationship then it can be done via post, or maybe via SWIFT (involving the third bank).

this is very simple as instructions as to be followed by collecting bank and remember under URC 522, banks are not obligatory to pay. therefore, collecting bank will only act instructions on the covering schedule and advise remitting bank via swift that no liability will be claim on them for releasing documents without payment.
