so what do we understand for it? if the courier receipt has a space for signature, then it must be signed. doesnt it go against the ISBP which says that a space for signature does not mean that it is to be signed.By requiring a courier receipt (proving that a non negotiable shipping document has been sent to applicant)and not a copy of a courier receipt, an original courier receipt was required according to sub-article 17 (a). As mentioned in ICC Opinion TA 654rev, which was approved at the April 2008 Banking Commission meeting, an original courier receipt should be signed. However, the document in question has no signature space. The structure of a courier receipt is not governed by the UCP; this is for each courier company to determine. The ICC Banking Commission cannot dictate that a signature is required when the courier company's document does not require such
