- What to do when your LC expires on a holiday By:-Arnilt Durpont
If the expiry date of a letter of credit or the last
day for presentation falls on a day when the bank to
which presentation is to be made is closed for reasons
other than force majeure, the expiry date or the last day for
presentation will be extended to teh following banking day. This is the rule of Article 29 Uniform Customs and
Practices, ICC publication No. 600. "Closed for reasons other than force majeure" does not mean that construction, company meetings, fieldtrips or similar circumstances limited to individual banks extend the expiry date. Similarly, local holidays, in the spirit of a carnival, should not lead to an extension either.
- "On Deck" and similar clauses relating to general shipping terms By:-Arnilt Durpont
Article 26 UCP 600 provides that a transport document must not indicate that the goods are or will be loaded on deck. Hence, if a beneficiary under a letter of credit presents a bill of lading showing that the goods have been loaded "on deck", a bank may properly refuse the documents and not pay the beneficiary. This seems quite a surprising result, particularly since generally containers are shipped on deck a vessel.
The term on deck, even though the UCP 600 do not specifically say so, only applies to marine transport.
A truck, a plane, a railway etc. do not have decks and the term is to be narrowly interpreted.
To get around the prohibition, carriers need to mention that they "may" load the goods on deck.
Article 26 a. UCP 600 specifically permits:
"A clause on a transport document stating that the goods may be loaded on deck is acceptable."
- Advice on shipping documents in letter of credit transactions By:-Arnilt Durpont
According to Article 27 UCP 600 a bank will only accept a clean transport document. As the text indicates, this provision applies to all shipping documents and not only marine shipping documents like bills of ladings. As Article 27 UCP 600 further provides, a clean transport document is one bearing no clause or notation expressly declaring a defective condition of the goods or their packaging.
Article 27 UCP 600 does not require the document to positively state a perfect condition; it rather requires the absence of a clause or notation indicating a defective condition. Since only a specific notation of a defective clause is detrimental, general clauses, typically indicating that the carrier relies on information provided by others, are acceptable.
The ICC further clarifies: “For a transport document to be ‘unclean’ it must expressly declare a defective condition of the goods and/or packaging. ‘Open top container’ is not such a statement. “(ICC Publication No. 459, page 102).
