Beneficiary's Cert. issued and signed by its agent
Posted: Sat May 29, 2010 10:04 pm
Dear Expert,
May I ask for your comment on the following document issuer?
L/C Beneficiary’s name : ABC Co. Ltd.
L/C called for Beneficiary’s Cert. certifying that the goods quality and specification are as per proforma invoice no. ABC123.
Certificate presented stating that “We, DEF Co. Ltd, are agents on behalf of ABC Co. Ltd. We hereby certifying that the goods quality and specification are as per proforma invoice no. ABC123.”
A) This certificate is issued and signed by DEF Co. Ltd.
B) This certificate is bearing ABC Co. Ltd. Letterhead but signed by DEF Co. Ltd. on behalf of ABC Co. Ltd.
I treat this document must be issued and signed by the beneficiary instead of its agent.
Therefore Case A is discrepant.
Case B is acceptable.
Furthermore, please also comment whether invoice can be
1) issued and signed by its agent.
2) issued by the beneficiary (bearing ABC Co. Ltd. Letterhead) but signed by its agent on behalf of this beneficiary.
Case 1 should be a discrepancy.
Case 2 is acceptable.
Please comment!
Thank you for your assistance.
