Can Bank Deny Payment against LC acceptance by LC applicant

Post by sahajp » Fri Dec 14, 2018 11:56 am

Chronological events

LC received
Material Supplied
BOE submitted
Discrepancy raised by Bank (minor discrepancy related to documents)
BOE accepted by LC applicant with discrepancy waiver

LC acceptance pending from LC issuing bank as on date.
Can LC issuing bank deny payment or LC acceptance even if LC applicant has given his acceptance post waiver discrepancy?

Hi Pal,

theoretically waiving discrepancies it is a post amendment and an amendment must be accepted by
issuing bank too.
Think to art 16-c iii b) ......waiver from applicant and agrees to accept it,......
This happens when applicant's standing is deteriorated!
Other comments appreciated.
Ciao
