We are in receipt of documents wherein LC asks for Shipment Advice to show Invoice Value.

Invoice shows Gross Amount as USD 12251 deducting USD 251 towards legalization Fees as per LC, hence now Net Invoice amount is USD 12000.

Shipment Advice evidences Amount as USD 12000 – which is a Net Invoice Value.

Is it a Discrepancy? Or Invoice can Show Any value i.e. Gross Value or Net Value as LC is not specifically asking for which value.

Hi,

Stating either gross or net invoice value (if not stated strictly in the LC) not make the document discrepant as it still fulfils its function, to inform recipient about shipment details and value of shipment.

I think it's acceptable, not discrepancy. However, i think the Ben should show both inv's Gross Value and Net Value
