Hi,

LC is an undertaking of the issuing bank. Article 7 defines these undertakings and 7b states that they are irrevocable. Exclusion of only subarticle 7c will not make an LC revocable and for me only create confusion. The article 7 must be fully excluded to make the LC revocable and relieve IB.

Hi Pals,

the argument has been already treated referring to a Newsletter of Commerzbank
Top@doc n. 1 2008, with comments by Navi too.

hi

article 7c of ucp 600 is not related to L/C being revocable or irrevocable
ucp states that any L/C is IRREVOCABLE unless it states otherwise

UCP 600 sub-article 7(c)

Hi,
UCP 600 sub-article 7(c) states about the issuing bank's undertaking to reimburse the nominated bank. Thus if a a credit excludes sub-article 7(c), then the nominated bank falls in a risky position. There is no relation of revocable or irrevocable of the LC with this exclusion.
